Pandora FTW
The “80s Cardio” station is life. It’s what i’ve been listening too for every long run and it really pumps me up. I save this electrified station specifically for my long run days so that i don’t get worn out from these monster hits.
Above is a quick snippet of some of the songs i’ve recently given a thumb up to on Pandora. Like any good Pandora station, you’ve gotta be giving feedback, looking at the history i’ve given 22 thumbs up and 18 thumbs down to clear out the bad stuff.
And not sure exactly why, but it seems that at least 50% of hit songs from the 80′s involve lyrics referencing running to or running away from something. Ideal for listening while jogging.
I also recently took the bullet and upgraded to Pandora Premium for $4.99/month. It’s been totally worth it to skip the ads that are just run crushers.
And no, i’m not being paid by Pandora, although i’d love to be if you’re listening, Pandora! I just don’t have the time or patience to select songs and curate playlists on Spotify, i’m just a Pandora guy through and through.
