Happy Friday! I wish I could say I was off this weekend but I work all day today and tomorrow. That’s okay though I plan to take full advantage of our nice weather on Sunday to get in a “long” run. I am also exited for two full days off from running. I usually hate it, but I feel like my body needs it this week.
Who am I listening to how my body feels?! Yep. I’m learning.
I haven’t done a music post in about a month so I thought I would share some new music I’ve added to my iPod lately.
1. Remember the Name – Fort Minor
This is an old song that I used to listen too all the time, but just was reminded of it recently. It is a great pump up song and I used it for my 400’s on Wednesday.
2. Classic – MKTO
I just heard this one the radio the other day and loved how upbeat it was. It’s a great song for just about any run!
3. Bottoms Up – Brantley Gilbert
This isn’t a real fast paced up song, but I enjoyed listening to it on my easy days.
4. Beat of the Music – Brett Eldredge
Another great song for easy running.
5. Pumpin Blood – NoNoNo
Great fast paced song. I love using this for treadmill intervals and sprints during the chorus.
6. Birthday – Katy Perry
It’s a fun quirky song.
7. Brand New Day – David Nail
This one is a little different. Very slow but great for recovery/easy runs.
8. Glow in the Dark – The Wanted
Judge me. It’s ok! The song has a “techno” feel too it but I really like the beat.
I think that’s about all the new additions since my last music post. In case you missed them:
In other news, I saw this on PRO Compression and thought I would share.

What are some songs on your iPod currently?
What are you plans for the weekend? (Running or Non-Running related0
AHHHHH remember the name is my ABSOLUTE favorite running song ever…..sharing a secret here….with the world…..it is the song I listen to before I race…..my song that gets me fired up and believing I can run well 🙂 I LOOOOVVVEEE IT!!!!!!!! Havent heard most of the other songs, but will take a listen right now….I scrolled to the bottom as I was too excited about remember the name!
It is one of my all time favorites to! I listen to it every single speed workout I do and when I am having a hard time getting through a workout!
Great list of songs! Haha I haven’t used my ipod in forever… I’m a lazy music listener so I just turn on Pandora.
Haha love the “lazy listener” term – I can be considered that sometimes too!
Thanks for the music suggestions, always looking for new songs to workout to! I usually just turn on Pandora and never make playlists or anything… I should work on that:) Weekend plans will involve some biking and running… I’m tapering for Boston, which is hard to believe… 10 days!
That’s awesome! I will be going to Boston to watch my husband race and I am so excited to watch everyone and be there for it! I can’t believe it is here already!
I’m in love with Bottom’s Up right now! Great song choices 🙂
Love that song!! Isn’t it great?
