My iPod Playlist for Running Ultra Marathons

I've been getting lots of requests for my current iPod playlist for running ultras from my previous post (thanks everybody). You'll find it below - 8 hours of high stompin' tunes to keep your pace up. For those of you on iTunes, I created an iMix called "Dunlap's Ultra Marathon Mix" with the top 20 songs for easy downloading; just search on the title and you should find it. Some of the best stuff isn't available on iTunes - I would highly suggest Freq Nasty, ILS, Prodigy's Dirt Chamber Sessions, and Boom Boom Satellites. You can them from Amazon.com.

If you have other suggestions, I'm sure others would appreciate it if you would add a comment below. And be careful out there - I almost ran over a horse the other day because my tunes were blaring. Keep the volume low or you might eat hoof.

Have fun!

  1. I like you have "I don't care anymore" right near the end. The lyrics are perfect:

    I don't care now what you say
    Cause everyday
    I feel alright by myself

    So right. It's about you and the trail, brother.

  3. Thanks, Michelle. I'll be on a SFO/NYC flight that day, so I'm not sure if I could participate. But I'm happy to post a notice about your blogathon as the date approaches.

    Good luck!

  4. I came across your Dec 2004 post on iPods and running and then this post. I just launched a new website which is a service for joggers and runners who enjoy paced music. It's called jogTunes. You'll see that it presently addresses the casual jogger and runner who typically runs about 30 minutes. The emphasis is on matching your pace to the songs' tempos, similar to dancing to the beat. So beats per minute are a main feature. I would greatly appreciate your impressions of the site and any ideas you may have as to how I can serve long distance runners. By the way, your playlist is indeed impressive. Are your songs chosen to match your pace? Please feel free to email me if it would make a dialog easier.

  5. Hi Scott, we've just started up mixalbum.com and a lot of our customers are runners - the reason is people can choose the start and end BPMs of their playlist, and the length they want, and it all gets mixed together.

    We're in the process of simplifying things before we publish the service too much and would love to have your input (or your readers') on it and what features you would want: www.mixalbum.com/main/fitness - if this is of interest get back to us (info@mixalbum.co m). cheers, ian chamings
