Marathon Mix: music to run with
Annotation:Setting your stride: when I first saw this movie I spent half my time on my iPad looking up soundtrack tunes. 'Never Hear Surf Music Again' and 'Lovely Day' are two great tracks from this otherwise gruesome film.
Annotation:Setting Your Stride: 'Get Rhythm' is a great tune for hitting your stride, so flip to this pick when you're looking for that race pace.
Annotation:Setting Your Stride: funk... what more is there to say? Get on up! Get into it!
Annotation:Picking up the Pace: 'Jump,' 'Hung Up,' and 'I'm Sorry' are perpetual favorites--great beats for speed work.
Annotation:Picking up the Pace: from Young MC and Tone Loc to Simon & Garfunkel and ABBA... What's not to love?
Annotation:Picking up the Pace: the song 'Ghosts and Stuff' got me sucked into Deadmau5 and I love this album just as much as the last. You don't have to be into electronica to find their mixes ear catching and foot stomping.
Annotation:Mid-Run Slump: LCD produce a lot of different sounds with a catchy foot-taping pace. 'Home' is my favorite of their tunes.
Annotation:Mid-Run Slump: I know, I know... You don't necessarily think "Elvis" when you think of marathon running, but 'Blue Suede Shoes', 'Little Sister' and 'Bosa Nova Baby' are fun, quick hits.
Annotation:Mid-Run Slump: 'We found love (feat. Calvin Harris)' is my new go-to pick-me-up when I'm feeling drained and ready to quit!
Annotation:Strong and Steady: get into a positive space with these smooth, relaxing, trance-like tracks. 'Breath' by Telepopmusik is a particular favorite.
Annotation:Strong and Steady: keep your head in the game by focusing on these familiar tunes and not your sore feet!--everything from Bowie's 'Golden Years' to 'You Sexy Thing' by Hot Chocolate.
Annotation:Strong and Steady: a great band, with a lot of songs that start off slow and have you rockin' hard by the end. The only problem? You'll probably wind up singing along! As long as you're okay with a few sideways glances...
