Rockin’ Walkin Tunes

Once in a while, we need fresh tunes on our iPods, MP3 and CD Players while we’re working out.

This post will stay up top until there are 20 upbeat, rockin’ walkin tunes suggested, enough to be able to pick & choose from to burn a new CD or download to your player. I’ll do this from time to time to get some fresh tunes since I personally love to walk to the rhythm of the song I’m listening to. The faster the better!

List them out as a continued numbered list from the previous suggestion. If the first person suggests 1. 2. & 3, then you start with 4. get it? Then I’ll close comments at 20 – if there’s a large response I’ll get a second edition up and we can start a new song list. :)

11. Let’s Get Loud – Jennifer Lopez (132 Beats Per Minute)

I’ve also found myself clicking over to Kelly Clarkson :blush: for walking music and motivation to walk.

I guess it just depends on the person’s tastes really – some might want some quick beat country, while I like pop for mindless mind wandering while I walk. :D

I love Drowning Pool’s “Let the bodies hit the floor”. When I hit a slump in my energy, this perks me right back up.

OOO CMC, I love that song!

I like a lot of kinds of music, but mostly country and the other night when I was on the treadmill, the song Good Ride Cowboy by Garth Brooks came on and it made me want to dance or move or whatever. So I am going to say…

14. Good Ride Cowboy–Garth Brooks
