I promised my running playlist, so here it is :) I want to preface this by saying that this list isn't indicative of my general taste.
"Till the World Ends" Britney Spears - I've never owned a Britney Spears album in my life, but for some reason this song makes me want to run. Double embarrassing...it was also written by Kesha (I refuse to do the dollar sign ;)).
"I Wanna Go" Britney Spears - See note above ;)
"Parachute" Ingrid Michaelson - I love her, and this is just a fun song.
"Stronger" Kanye West (Clean) - "Tha-tha-tha-that don't kill me can only make me stronger" It's something that I like to be reminded of when I'm starting my second mile ;)
"Starry Eyed" Ellie Goulding - I love her! She's British and I really fell in love with her version of Elton John's "Your Song."
"Lights" Ellie Goulding
"Hate On Me" Glee Cast
"Gold Digger" Glee Cast
"Crazy in Love" Beyonce & Jay Z - I just love this song.
"Wonderman" Tinie Tempah & Ellie Goulding - My friend Seanna introduced me to this song. I'm such a dorkie anglophile, so I was in love from the moment her rapped the word petrol ;).
"Set Fire to the Rain" Adele - Adele is probably my favorite vocalist.
"Uprising" Muse
"Airplanes" B.O.B. & Haylie Williams
"Dog Days are Over" Florence & the Machine
"Hallelujah" Paramore
"Love Stoned/I Think She Knows" Justin Timberlake - A lot of his songs would make decent running songs, but I like this one. If I play it at the end of my work out the second half makes for good cool down music.
Okay, that's all I have for work out music today. I am now down 35 lbs! I'm keeping to my schedule, but today I got to go to the gym super early (5:30) and without the kids. It was nice not having to be in the family room because the equipment there is somewhat limited. This morning I shortened my bike ride a bit and added 10 minutes on a rowing machine. I love rowing machines! I'm hoping to add some rowing on to my work out at least once a week :). I hope that everyone is doing well! I'll try to post again on Sunday.
I love running to Thousand Foot Crutch. They have quite a few songs that get me through my walls when running. Right now that is the only exercise I am doing. You are doing a great job. Keep it up : )
ReplyDeleteThank you Ginger! I'll have to try some Thousand Foot Crutch :)
ReplyDeleteGreat list - and I'm happy you mentioned Justin Timberlake, LOVE his music and had totally forgotten about it!
ReplyDeleteAlso, have you ever tried spinning? It's a great, great workout that is SO good for your cardio endurance.
I did spinning a lot in GA. I loved it! The only thing I didn't like was how sore my butt was for the first month or so ;) I'm hoping to get back into it soon. Right now I'm having such a good time running!
