I've been dabbling in the running arts lately. I took a bit of a hiatus (how old is Eli? Ok, a 2.5 year hiatus) but I've been getting back into the swing of things and it is wonderful. Our neighborhood has a few fantastic trails and running paths I've been exploring and, although the mosquitos are thick in the evenings, the sunsets are worth the blood loss.
When I run I have to have music. It sort of motivates me and I can get lost in the songs and forget about the burning in my legs and the general pain of the experience. I thought I'd share my must-have playlist and ask if anyone has a favorite running song or songs they could recommend...I like them bouncy.
Here's what's on my phone's music cache right now:
I Feel Better-Hot Chip
Heartbeats-The Knife
Sail-AWOL Nation (I know...I know)
Ring of Fire-Jonny Cash
Star of Wonder/None Shall Pass (Its a Tor/Sufjan Stevens mash up and if you haven't heard it do it NOW) language NSFW
Wondersmith-Astronautalis
Welcome Home-Coheed and Cambria
All Along the Watchtower-Jimi Hendrix
That's it....any thing I must add???
i like to run to moby, specifically his "play" album. good beats that keep me going.
