Welcome to Tunes Tuesday for October! Yup, October…as in the 10th month of year. How crazy is that?! As a reminder, Tunes Tuesday is now once a month instead of weekly. We will still have themes but feel that a monthly format may help more people participate. The link-up will open on the first Tuesday of each month. Please feel free to link up with us all month!
The theme for this month is Halloween/Scary James. For a list of the remaining themes for the year, please visit the Tunes Tuesday info page.
I’m going off topic this month and sharing my Chicago Marathon playlist! This playlist has hours of songs and there really is something for everyone – rap, pop, rock, etc. I like having all different types of music because it constantly keeps me guessing as I am running. This also helps to get my mind off of all the miles, especially during 26.2 miles! Without further ado, here’s my list!
(FYI – You may have to double click on the image to make the font bigger – Sorry! I tried to increase the photo size but this was as big as I could get it on the blog)
Tell me: Do you have any songs you would add to my playlist? What’s your “go-to” song for your race day playlist
I’m also linking up with Marcia from Marcia’s Healthy Slice, Erika from MCM Mama Runs and Patty from My No-Guilt Life for Tuesdays on the Run.
That’s cool that you picked specific songs. I’ve never actually made a playlist for a specific race. I listen to the same songs over an over….haha
LOL, sometimes during a race I do repeat a few songs
Ooh you have some great songs that I may need to “steal” for my playlist, like Wyclef and Ying Yang Twins! I can’t believe Chicago is almost here, I’m so excited for you!
Yes, steal away! I love adding older songs to my playlists, like the Wyclef song
Looks like fun! Since I did this before my run on Saturday… don’t forget to charge your music device! Luckily it was just a training run, but I’d freak out if I did that before a race.
Whenever I pack I always make sure that I have all my chargers for my electronic devices lol
I’ve had a few of these songs on my playlists in the past! But now I don’t run with music. Unless Im running on the treadmill- then I need some entertainment!
Ahh yes, you always need something to make the time fly by on the treadmill!
I listen to the same songs all the time, but I have a lot so I never hear any repeats (unless I manually do it myself). I have probably told you more than once, AC/DC is my go-to band…Thunderstruck and It’s a Long Way to the Top are the BEST!!!!
Yup, I’ll be adding some Ac/DC to my playlist. Thanks for the suggestion!!
You’ve got some good stuff on there! Chances are good you won’t be able to hear much of your playlist in Chicago. The crowds are loud!
LOL I was kind of thinking the same thing. Hopefully I’ll be able to hear a little bit of it.
I never run with music, so I have zero suggestions LOL. Hope that your playlist works for you in Chicago.
Thanks! I hope I’ll be able to hear it over the crowds!
