Any further suggestion on this? Well, no - my recommendation from 2013 still stands. Most film music doesn't work in these circumstances (for me), only hardhitting, beat-based stuff (psytrance, goa, synthwave, 80s pop, rock, metal etc.). Then again, I haven't worked out AT ALL since the fall of 2017 - and gained 20+ kilos in the process - so what do I know?

Any further suggestion on this? Fellow runner here. I agree with what Thor said earlier about beat based music--I have two hour+ trance playlists from Tycho's Burning Man set that were available for download before the copyright people got wind of it. Anything between 120 and 140 bpm is good for running--when I used to run with my big honking Sony discman, I'd always start out with Kasmir by Zeppelin because I could always match my foot falls to the steady bass drum and it made me feel pretty epic. As far as film music, I've run to Backseat Driver and Show me the money/Your time is up 007 from Arnold's Bond scores. Really any of the chase music from his Bond stuff is pretty heavy on drum loops. The drums really get me in the zone on those cues and they're long enough that I'm not fiddling with the controls of my player while trying not to trip on an errant log or pine cone. Anything you can find that has a steady tempo that is NOT constantly changing time signatures (I can't imagine trying to run in synch with something like Clever Girl from Total Recall lol I'd be sprinting by the time it was over).
