It's a somewhat controversial subject among those who run professionally and on the novice level. Some see it as an annoyance, some see it as a distraction and some see it as motivational.
My opinion is that music is something that drives me to run and perform faster. I admit that I do have a selected playlist of 'power' songs so to say, songs that pump up your blood. Some songs do not even make sense being played at standstill but play them during a run and you become a beast.
Today I got to thinking why is that? Why do most people resort to music? Is it a way to take away the boredom? Or is it that we all want to feel like that famous Rocky scene?
Well my answer, would it be asking too much for a bit of both?! Truth be told when a really good song comes on I do feel that surge of endorphins which just takes the pain away and gives me that extra push to climb that hill or keep that pace.
So if for you running is para-para-paradise or else you're looking for the Eye of the tiger.
Put in your headphones and run like hell =D
Hope you all have a wonderful new year filled with all kinds of good things =))
