I admit I appreciate it now with the kids. And none of it came down until around New Year's. And cinnamon scented pinecones went on the heater vents. Not even a tree! It was heaven.īut in the fourth year, a gust of "Who-the-hell-are-you-to-be-harshing-my-Christmas-mellow?" blew into the house. 26th? Daunted by the prospect of such a tight deadline, we spent the first three years together with only two stockings on the fireplace and a creepy looking nutcracker on the mantel. Would you believe that when we got married, I "demanded" that Carol have any and all Christmas decorations down by Dec. I should have timed one of the boy's birthdays to be on Dec. Now go open up your iTunes, pick a bunch of songs that fit this list, go to the iTunes store and buy 10-20 new songs, then sync your iPod, strap on your shoes and hit the road. Perhaps "Percussion Gun", White Rabbits, "Around the Bend", The Asteroids Galaxy Tour (which you might know as the "iPod Touch commercial song"), or "The Good Old Days", The Lodger. Might I suggest "Jesus Christ Pose", Soundgarden? Or if you're a little more daring, try "Unsung", Helmet.ĩ) Classic songs- There are some songs, like Talking Heads "Once In A Lifetime"and Springsteen's "Born to Run" that belong on any running playlist by virtue of their pedigree alone.ġ0) New blood- Classics are fine, but find a few new songs that fit criteria #2 and 3 to keep your playlist from developing that not-so-fresh scent. Nine Inch Nails, Metallica, Kiss, or Jane's Addiction would all be acceptable choices. I've always liked "Rain on the Scarecrow", John Mellencamp and "Around the Way Girl", LL Cool J, so when they come on I get lost in 3:40 worth of memories, which gets me that much closer to the finish.Ĩ) Bang your head- Nothing helps you bust through "the wall" better than some loud metal or hard rock. ("Where The Streets Have No Name" over "Bad", U2)ħ) Good memories- As long as the tempo and length are adequate, some songs that may not exactly rock can work if they generate some emotion or memories.

Pick these over similar songs that start slow and build but don't really have that driving beat. I consider them either 'take-off songs', that start a little slow and rev up, like "Portions for Foxes", Rilo Kiley, or "Paint it Black", Rolling Stones, or 'blast-off songs' that come hard right out of the box, like "Panama", Van Halen or "Monkey Wrench", Foo Fighters.Ħ) Slow but steady starts- Some songs start slow, but because they have at their base a driving beat, they build and become motivating. ("White Lines" by Grandmaster Flash over "Jam On It", Newcleus)Ĥ) No Radiohead- A great band, but I've yet to find a Radiohead song that's acceptable to run to.ĥ) Good starts- Songs that get going quickly work great. Sometimes you've got to pick alternate songs from your favorite artists to fit the tempo criteria ("Cracklin' Rosie" over "Sweet Caroline", Neil Diamond, "The Way You Move" over "Hey Ya", Outkast)ģ) Song length- Pick shorter over longer- you want to keep moving, not get bogged down by a long guitar solo or a bunch of "wiki-wiki-wiki-wikis". Songs that are too fast will throw off your pace, and too slow will just bore you. I think anywhere from 100-300 would work.Ģ) Song tempo- Obviously a big factor. This way, you can familiarize yourself with the tunes without getting sick of them. A good list needs to not be your whole catalog but should have enough songs for variety. While I won't share the entire 157 songs that made the cut, I will share what I feel makes a good playlist specifically for running, with some examples of songs on my current list.ġ) Length- Thanks to digital technology, gone are the days of 12-18 song mixes you burned onto a disc, or *gasp* recorded onto a cassette (that you'd have to flip half-way thru a decent run). Just redid my running playlist tonight- long overdue, as I've been listening to a playlist I made for the last FinkBowl and not a true running playlist.
