Running Music–Techno Edition

IMG_1453

I woke up early this morning ready to RUN. Since my normal 8 am class is not formally meeting today, I jumped at the opportunity to head out and get my run done in the early morning hours.

I ended up covering about 4.52 miles. I was planning to run anywhere from 30-45 minutes, and that I did!

Average pace 9:16? I’ll take it! That’s pretty good for me. For a while I was stuck at a 10 minute mile, but my runs keep getting faster and faster.

I absolutely love it. My best time was 7:46 on this run.. heck yes! When I look down at my Garmin (I’ll admit, I look a bit TOO much), and see that I’m running “fast” it makes me want to run faster ;)

One thing I always need on my runs? MUSIC.

I thrive on music and the better the song, the faster I go, the harder I push! I was jammin this morning to some songs I wanted to share.

Most of them are techno-y, but I have a bunch of others. These are the ones that really made me fly this morning.

Seek Bromance – Time Berg <— Old Favorite

Pursuit of Happiness – Steve Aoki (I met him before!) <— Old Favorite

Come Fly Away – Benny Benassi ft. Channing

Game Over – NEUS & The Noisy Freaks Feat. Nalesia

Hello Miami – Avicii

Kickstarts – Example (Afrojack Remix)

Not Fair – Lily Allen (Oblivion Remix) I shared this one on my Friday Favorites.

Phazing – Dirty South feat. Rudy

 

I have TONS more but I think this is MORE than enough for now ;)

 

Do you run faster with better music?

Favorite song to run to? I need more!

Morning or night runner?

  2. Great run! I usually don’t run with music, but I’d probably pick it up a notch if I did. I’ll have to check out some of these tunes when I get home. I like running to The Killers and Jimmy Eat World, though I really like mixing it up.

    Congrats on your super speedy run!! Usually when I look down and see that I have a good pace going on, I am so surprised. I tend to run faster when I’m not feeling so great. It’s weird! I also love when a good song comes on and I run faster. Right now I’m all about “shots” but my all time favorite running song is “remember the name’

  4. Ahhh I wish I was a better runner!! LOL! I ran my first ever 5 miles the other day and that was in a race I signed up for an barely trained for! I didn’t even think I could run that, so woo hoo to you for running this often!!!

    I do run better with music! My man runs marathons and never trains with music?! He says he gets into a “zone”……ok ;)

    Fast music is a must when I run! David Guetta’s entire album is on my workout playlist it’s all so good. And at the end I always play “I like how it feels” by Enrique Iglesias because I love how it feels at the end of my runs!
