Whether you’re running outside or just hitting the treadmill, good music can often make the difference between a rave run and a blown goal. That’s why we’re putting together 90-minute playlists each month chock-full of songs with enough of a beat to keep you moving. For even more tunes, check out our list of the best running songs.
Running, especially if you’re trying to run fast or far during fall marathon training season, can be an incredibly demanding sport. Not to mention, if you're training in the heat of summer or the cold of winter, finding the motivation to run can be hard. While pushing yourself hard is one key to running, another is the cooldown, and there’s nothing quite so annoying as trying to chill postrun while techno beats thump in your ears.

If you want to stay healthy and avoid injury, you need to cool down after those grueling long runs and tough workouts. So whether you’re finishing your workout with a slow mile of jogging, walking the block back to your apartment, or doing some stretches, these cooldown songs will help you relax.
Composed of slower beats per minute (BPM) songs, this playlist will help your body reach an equilibrium as your pace starts to slow down and heart rate returns to normal. But you can also take it on the road with you if you’re just heading out for some easy miles.
