I’ve been listening to audio books and podcasts on most of my runs lately but I still love my music. When I saw Kim and Zenaida’s prompt for this weeks Tuesday Topics I knew I had to make a playlist with some of my favorite running songs. 

Some of these songs have special meaning for me and that’s why they made the list.

The first song California Love is a good warm up song. It gets me moving but not too fast. I like this song because it reminds me of Ellen, when her show was fun. She danced to this song a lot at the beginning of the show.

The number 3 song Boogie Shoes is a fun song that was on So You Think You Can Dance (SYTYCD). It was one of the dances that made you feel like they were having such a good time.

Song number 6, No Diggity always makes me want to move.

Number 7, Dude (looks like a lady) reminds me of Robin Williams in Mrs Doubtfire and I loved Robin Williams and that movie, so…

Song number 9, C’est La Vie makes me think of my Mom. She loved Bod Seger and she loved to dance. I know when I play this song she is dancing in heaven. 

Number 14, Smokin’ is a fast song that quickens my pace every time. This is an oldie but a goodie.

Song number 16 Mercy this is another song from a favorite dance on SYTYCD. Twitch was one of my favorite dancers and went on to be the DJ on the Ellen show. 

And finally, I didn’t mention the 3 Prince songs, but I loved Prince and have a playlist of just him but these are 3 favorites.

I hope you enjoy my playlist. Music can be very personal but is one of the things that can be shared by everyone. It crosses all barriers.

Do you have any favorite songs to run to that have special meaning for you?

Thanks for reading,
