A great post topic Karl.
I have an eclectic taste and try and package up different types of music for different parts of race. This calls for skillful analysis of pace times vs ascents/descents/toilet breaks and stopping to shout expletives at various foreign runners - especially the French git that hit me in the nads with his trekking pole.....but I digress..... Opening section of music will be slow and graceful: Thee More Shallows (my brother introduced them to me) Chris Isaac Crosby Stills & Nash...Young may sneak on America Ian Dury Barclay James harvest Middle section (trying to get cadence up) AC/DC Led Zep - Black Dog is great...especially if you are being chased by one red hot Chillis Rolling Stones Deftones Robin Trower....he is from Southend you know) Incubus Muse hendrix Faithless Back end (sombre, ease pain by thinking of others pain) radiohead Joy Division the trouble is my planning always lets me down so that AC/DC will blare out whilst struggling up a hill or mountain when it doesn't flaming help. And when you approach the downhill and want to tear off Laura Nero will start playing something that makes you cry...... I await Steffen's listing which will no doubt include Mantovani and Robbiw Williams.... rgds Mike |

Great selection MM 
Hoping to use the wife’s Nano (once I get an armband for it) so this WILL be what I'll be listening to on that long 2 mile jog in the new year! Sticking with MMs phases (as is necessary on such a long run) the full listing is as follows: Warm-up: Lionel Richie - Running With The Night Junior Walker & The All Stars - (I'm A) Road Runner Along sea-front: Spencer Davis Group - Keep On Running Up Pier Hill: Kate Bush - Running Up That Hill Home straight: Roy Ayers - Running Away Martha Reeves & The Vandellas - Nowhere To Run To Post-run cool down: Public Enemy - Security Of The First World (trainspotters only: the 'joke' is convoluted so if anyone gets it I'll buy them a drink at Presentation Night!) This is obviously my 'light' selection - I expect that my 'heavy' selection would be of more favour with you 'head-bangers': Intervals: Clash - Should I Stay Or Should I Go Homer's dash: 5,6,7,8s - Woo Hoo XC: Bow Wow Wow - Go Wild In The Country XC2: Skids - Into The Valley Pre-FLM: Clash - London Calling Post-FLM: Cure - Let's Go To Bed FLM lottery loser: Queen - Another One Bites The Dust Cheers, John PS MM - there's nothing wrong with a bit of Man'i or Mr Rock DJ - shame on you. |
