Throwback Thursday Running Playlist: Marathon Motivation!

By Janelle @ Run With No Regrets | music , running

Are there certain songs you hear while on a run that just “do it” for you?

As I’ve been listening to music on my training runs as I prepare for the Philly marathon, I’ve noticed that some songs excite me much more than others!  Suddenly I’m moving faster, I’m feeling more energetic, and I’m overall happy!

Wouldn’t be great to capture that feeling during an entire run?

Every 2nd Thursday of the month, I’ve shared my favorite Throwback tunes covering various genres that I loved when I was growing up in the 90’s and early 2000’s.   These #TBT Running Playlists have really become one of my favorite posts to create!  So far I’ve created  3 other playlists:

• Female Groups including Destiny’s Child and TLC
• Boy Bands including *NSYNC and Backstreet Boys
• Ladies of Pop including Madonna and Rihanna 

If you’re looking for a good playlist for an upcoming marathon, half marathon, or really any running workout, I’ve got you covered!  My latest playlist features songs that are all about giving you the motivation you need when you’re trying to dig deep!

Throwback Thursday Running Playlist: Pop Princesses

By Janelle @ Run With No Regrets | music , running

How have you been enjoying your running music playlist lately?  Are you listening to a lot of variety or just the same old stuff?

If you’ve followed my marathon training journey, you would know that I listening to music while running is a must for me, because I can easily get bored on my long, solo runs.  A great music playlist can keep you motivated and provide a nice distraction while grinding out your miles or doing any intense workout!

Every 2nd Thursday of the month, I’ll be featuring a Spotify playlist featuring Throwback tunes with a theme covering various genres that I loved when I was growing up in the 90’s and early 2000’s.  So far I’ve created 2 other playlists:

• Female Groups including Destiny’s Child and TLC
• Boy Bands including *NSYNC and Backstreet Boys

Clearly, I’ve been a very pop-py state of mind, so for this month, I want to show love to some of my favorite female pop artists!  You can call them pop princesses, queens, whatever!  All I know is they provide great music to dance to and to run to, so I hope you enjoy the playlist!

Throwback Thursday Running Playlist: Boy Bands

By Janelle @ Run With No Regrets | music , running

Is your running/workout playlist getting a little stale?  Need something different to mix things up?  I’ve got something for you.

Now I have to admit that this month’s Throwback Thursday Running Playlist may not be your cup of tea, but hear me out!

Every 2nd Thursday of the month, I’ll be featuring a Spotify playlist featuring Throwback tunes with a theme covering various genres that I loved when I was growing up in the 90’s and early 2000’s.  Last month, I featured Girl Groups like Destiny’s Child, Salt ‘N Pepa and a whole lot more.  It really was fun to listen to that playlist while on the run and even on the road.  It really took me back in time.

So this month, I am showing love to the Boy Bands!  I’m talking about groups of about 3-5 guys singing harmonies and doing some cool choreography, usually wearing crazy matching outfits.  No instrument playing here, sorry!  I hope you enjoy listening to this playlist and try it out while in the gym or out on the run!

Throwback Thursday Running Playlist: Female Groups

By Janelle @ Run With No Regrets | music , running

Do you listen to music while working out or going on a run?  It’s become clear to me that I really can’t live without it!

I’ve fallen in love with my Spotify account and I’ve enjoyed being able to create my own playlists, especially since I have a paid subscription and can listen with no ads!

So in honor of Throwback Thursday, I thought it would be a great idea to share my love for music (and nostalgia) and each month, share a new music playlist with some great throwback hits!  This first edition of Throwback Thursday is dedicated to the ladies – female groups that are all about Girl Power!
