When I see runners, I am always talking to them about their running cadence, or how many steps per minute they take. I wrote a blog a short time ago that talked about how to improve running cadence, but here is a short list of examples of music with a beat you can listen to and be in a preferred range of steps per minute.
Hope you find some of these examples helpful and I would encourage you to then build a playlist for yourself to help keep you motivated and running at a good pace.
- Burn by Ellie Goulding
- Empire State of Mind by Jay Z and Alicia Keys
- Love is a battlefield by Pat Benetar
- The Anthem by Good Charlotte
- Lose Yourself by Eminem
- Hey-ya by Outcast
- Happy by Pharrell
