On the Run!


Music for the Long Run

My training plan also asks for long runs… With my pace, these 20-25 km runs tend to take about two hours. So I clearly need some distraction! What could be more fun than listening to music (or podcasts… more of these later).

Here my suggestions for an iPod «long run» playlist:

  • The 2001 album “Reptile” by Eric Clapton. The ultimative long-run album!!
  • Get Jazzy – The Chill Lounge, Vol. 1
  • Guru’s Jazzmatazz Vol. 1
  • “Mind, Body, and Soul” by Joss Stone
  • “Exile on Main Street”, The Rolling Stones, 1972 (my year of birth!)
  • Final track, of course: “Gonna Fly Now” by Bill Conti (Rocky Soundtrack)
