Running for Mummies

Running for Mummies

Whilst on Twitter yesterday, a discussion began about motivational workout music.  That led me to come up with a plan (mwaa…haaa…haaa- evil laugh) to do a weekly Running for Mummies Playlist.  I asked my Twitter mates to give me some of their favourite motivational songs that really help them to keep going when out running or working out.  Or maybe this music will help you to get up off of the couch or away from the computer.  Now, if I can just figure out how to download all of this music, I’ll be running for England.  I do believe that music can be a brilliant motivator and am really looking forward to making a bigger effort thanks to some of these music choices.  So get thee to your favourite music downloading platform (no advertisements here) and download some of these brilliant songs to get you chugging down the road.  I’ve also included the videos of two of my favourite choices from this week’s selections.  Please feel free to comment at the bottom with your favourite and most motivational songs for next week’s offerings.  In the meantime, rock on everyone…

  1. Perfect I want them all, I am sure that works great for housework instead of workout. As discussed on twitter earlier workout still rhymes with throw up for me, well sorts of rhymes anyway :)

    Such a brilliant idea!! My this week’s favourite would be Somebody to Love; and my suggestion for the next week – Ven – Amparanoia feat Macaco y Calima

    If it inspires you just half the way it inspires me, it would be just great! – I love that one!

  3. Great selection!

    I would heartily recommend a cheesy dose of ‘You’re the Best Around’ by Joe Esposito (it’s from Karate Kid) – see
