I wanna know...

what's on your playlist for running/exercise?

Let me know - either via comment or on your own blog :)

Well, Sarah.

I put a wide selection from all of my favourite CDs onto my MP3 plyer and stick it on random.

This is all sorts of stuff, mainly:

60s British and psychadelic The Beatles, The Small Faces, The Kinks, Bob Dylan etc. This is the stuff I was brought up on.

Independent Australian folk rock/pop from the early 90s on (Weddings Parties Anything, Darren Hanlon and the band he used to be in - The Simpletons, The Lucksmiths).

A smattering of punk and alternative grungy stuff - but not too much. A bit of Everclear and early REM, some Clash, early Green Day and a bit of The Jam.

Sorry about the lengthy response - you stumbled onto one of my favourite subjects.

Oh, I suspect your script for the trip up the coast is 100% accurate. There is a very good reason why John's capsule is in the middle. I danced while it was being installed.

Cheers,
Ben

I'll get RSI if I type up all the songs I play :-) I have hundreds. Hmmm, make that thousands.

For gym work I tend to listen to slower stuff, or CDs I haven't heard in ages, or stuff people have give me, or things I've recently downloaded.

For running it depends on how fast I'm going, I try to tailor the playlist to suit. I find in races I like to have things I recognise rather than new songs.

I will try to blog what I listened to today at Doomben.

bit of everything but have only run twice with an i-pod. it was too dangerous for me...after 30k, it scratches my arm/chest to pieces. Stones, INXS, FYC, SImply Red, Eminem, Sunny boys, and a couple of greatest hits compilations for 2005, 2006.
if i don't like the song to suit teh modd of the run, i would hit FF.
