This week’s 5k running playlist is very rock heavy. I didn’t want to make it too “rocky” so I also threw in some pop songs and some music that is on the border of rock and pop.
This list is 1:06 hours long, and has an average BPM of 135. This is running playlist isn’t too fast and it’s long enough to run a 10k if you really want to use the whole list.
And now, here’s the list:
