Improve Your Fitness with a Run/Walk Music Selection

Whether you’re exercising outdoors or using a treadmill, the right music can significantly impact your workout’s success. This month, we’ve created 90-minute playlists packed with upbeat songs to keep you motivated.

Combining Running and Walking for Optimal Fitness

Sometimes a run is desired; sometimes a walk is preferred. However, there are instances when a combination of both is ideal. This approach benefits runners of all levels, from beginners building endurance to those incorporating rest periods between sprints or recovering from injuries.

The key to effective run/walk training lies in establishing a suitable structure based on your fitness. This might involve alternating 30-second runs with 30-second walks or longer intervals of running and walking. Creating a perfect playlist to accompany this training method can be challenging.

The Ideal Run/Walk Soundtrack

We’ve addressed this challenge by designing a playlist specifically for run/walk routines. This collection features 26 songs, alternating high-energy tracks with slower tunes. Fast songs signal running periods, while slower songs indicate walking periods.

The playlist’s structure is simple: a fast song, followed by a slow song, with the artists alternating. This organization makes it easy to follow, regardless of your chosen interval structure. You can also easily adjust the sequence to suit your personal preferences.

This run/walk playlist is appropriate for recovery days or interval training. Put on your headphones and get started. It’s time to run (and walk)!
