Running is a great way for us tennis players to build the endurance we need during those long grueling matches. Whether you’re a long-distance runner or new to running altogether, one thing is for sure: you need a kickass playlist. Not many things can get you as pumped up to run as the right combination of songs, am I right?
There are so many great playlists tailored to specific genres, decades, and artists. But what if what you’re really craving is a little ’80s mixed with some alternative tracks AND today’s top hits?
Our ultimate playlist has it all, from Cyndi Lauper’s “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” and One Republic’s “West Coast” to Nicki Minaj’s “Super Bass” and Jessie J’s “I Want Love.” This 72-track mega-playlist also includes pop throwbacks, including a classic from Whitney Houston, as well as a few of this year’s chart-toppers. Leave it to Beyoncé, Rihanna, Eminem, and the Jonas Brothers to get you off the couch and out the door.
Enjoy running (and crush your mile time) with these beats below. Just make sure you download the free Spotify app so you can stream our ultimate playlist on the treadmill or your favorite running trail. Then, lace up your sneakers, put on your headphones, and hit play!
