v_greysonAs you probably know if you've been near me for the last five (jfc) months, I have been training for a marathon! And on Saturday I will run 26.2 miles (that's about 47km, for you metric folks <3) for...fun, I guess? Fun and perpetual bragging rights.
Anyway, I have been training with a running club which does not allow headphones on their runs (shocking, I know). So I am sadly bereft of a solid running playlist that will carry me for most or all of the marathon, i.e., four plus hours of running, running, and more running.
So! Rec me your dance music, your cardio playlists, your sick club remixes. Anything that makes you want to jump around or feel really happy. Genre is pretty unimportant; I have listened to all kinds of things while running with great motivational success (French ska rock, folk rock about being killed by angry villagers, Justin Timberlake/LCD Soundsystem mashups). I reserve the right to draw the line at heavy metal, though.
Anyway, tell me about the songs where you are like, "Damn, I don't know why, but it's making me dance." I have Spotify, so I will combine all this into the SUPER AMAZING MARATHON PLAYLIST OF VICTORY and then I will listen to it while I run. And run. And run some more.
\o/ TWENTY-SIX POINT TWO OR BUST \o/

Date: 2012-03-13 01:45 am (UTC)Also M83, Midnight City. And lots of other M83 stuff.
The Septimus track from the Stardust soundtrack is short but awesome and epic and definitely makes you think you're going to, like, run with wing of fire and kick some ass or something.
Anyway. :)
