More Running Music For Your Running Playlist At 130 BPM
Posted by Sam in 130 BPM, BPM, playlist, Running Playlist on April 27, 2012
I’ve been ver busy lately, training hard for a big run, but I wanted to share some running music for your running playlist so that you have something to listen to while I’m “away”.
I’ve been very disappointed with “The Voice” lately, I’m following “American Idol” and “The Voice” and there is a clear quality divide between the 2. I don’t know if it’s the actual singers or the quality of the microphones or what, but American Idol makes The Voice look like a high school performance. I was sorry to see Elise leave lsat night, but she really deserved it. That Jimmy Hendrix song was probably the worst song she could have picked. It’s a nice song, but way too artsy and weird for the show’s audience.
Anyway, here’s the list, I would love to hear your feedback on this, so please comment, or contact me on facebook or twitter.
I’d also appreciate it if you “like” this post on Facebook or “+1″ it if you are on Google+.
New Running Music By Genre – Alternative Running Playlist
Posted by Sam in Alternative, Playlist of the week, Running Playlist on February 20, 2012
Today’s running music is all about alternative rock (or is it just plain “alternative”?). In this running playlist, I added some music that is a bit off the beaten path and tried to find some songs that are not always played on the radio on mainstream channels.
I also included some free music (only on amazon and it may not be free if they change stuff on their side, but it was free when I last looked).
This Alternative music running playlist is 40 minutes long and averages out at 139 BPM.
And now, here’s the list, I would love to hear your feedback on this, so please comment, or contact me on facebook or twitter.

Posted by Sam in Country Running Playlist, Music, playlist, Playlist of the week, Running Playlist on January 30, 2012
This week, I’m posting some country running songs for your running playlist as part of my running playlist by genre series.
As you may know if you’ve been following this site for a while, I’m a big fan of country music and it’s usually featured in my personal running playlists.
In this week’s running playlist I tried to include a good mix of new, old, famous and unknown country songs. I also tried to include some free country songs if you get them on Amazon.com (The amazon.com free music list changes often, so the music here may not be free anymore if they change it but it’s worth checking out)
This country music running playlist is 40 minutes long and averages out at 132 BPM.
And now, here’s the list, I would love to hear your feedback on this, so please comment, or contact me on facebook or twitter.

Rock Running Music For Your Running Playlist
Posted by Sam in Music, Rock, Running Playlist on January 23, 2012
Over the next few weeks, I’m going to post running music for your running playlists by genre, and this week, I’m starting with rock!
Rock is an easy pick for running playlists, most of rock music is energizing and upbeat so it’s great for a power boost during a run.
I tried to keep this week’s list pretty diverse with some older rock, some new rock, and some rock music you may not be familiar with along with popular music.
I’ve also included some free music if you get your music from Amazon.com (The free music list on Amazon.com changes all the time, so no guarantees that it will still be free when you try it, but it’s worth checking).
This running playlist is almost 40 minutes long and averages at 134 BPM.
And now, here’s the list, I would love to hear your feedback on this, so please comment, or contact me on facebook or twitter.
I’d also appreciate it if you “like” this post on Facebook or “+1″ it if you are on Google+.

A New Year, A New Running Playlist – 2011′s Top 10 Songs
Posted by Sam in Holiday, Playlist of the week, Running Playlist on January 12, 2012
The holidays are over and it’s time to get back into the cadence of the day to day with some new running playlists for the new year. I can’t believe the running playlist site is going into its third year, but here we are! The numbers are finally in, and these are the songs that were most popular on this site during 2011. Surprisingly, not too many “top of the chart” pop songs appeared on this list and we still have some strong oldies and goodies.
So here’s to another great year of great running and great music!
And now, here’s the list, I would love to hear your feedback on this, so please comment, or contact me on facebook or twitter, or +1 me if you’r on google+.
