Sarah's Interval Playlist

Just a quick, fun, Friday post to conclude my series on training for your first race in the FITTEST way possible.  Today I'm sharing my own personal perennial favorite running mix that has been blasting out of my earphones for ages now!  It's upbeat, rockin' and will definitely get your feet moving and your heart pumping in the best way possible!

This particular mix is designed for a long interval run (it's a little over an hour altogether)- walk or jog during the slower songs and run or sprint during the heavier tunes.  The chilled out songs still have a great beat so you don't fall asleep and the tempo picks up throughout the playlist to keep you going strong.  I hope you enjoy the picks- and the bit of insight to what motivates me to run!

Have fun, enjoy the throwback tunes, and hopefully you get the chance to get out there and run this weekend.  (If there are any fellow rock lovers out there, I hope you enjoy the era pairings).  This concludes my running series, so join me next time for reviews, recipes, and more!


Keep on Rockin 🎸 (and Running 👟) in the Free World
