I know we have tons of music thread on here but I need help making a playlist for my half marathon. I listen to a wide range of music from instrumentals to metal so I welcome all suggestions. I’m looking for songs with a good cadence in them. So far I have a few Lindsey sterling songs but I’m hitting a wall!!

Most of them should have a pretty good cadence but a few of them are more slow build or flowy. Man now the thought of you listening to my playlist suddenly makes me laugh at myself in a self conscious way

I build my running playlists based on what I need at that part of the run for a half marathon
First 30 min with faster cadence, to get the adrenaline going and start at a good clip, but not too fast.
40 min of something that keeps my rythm constant, mellow. It’s still a long way to go.
Then 30 min that will keep me moving when it starts to hurt and be tough.
Last songs all-out.
A few of my no-fail songs are Greyhound (Swedish House Mafia) Lose yourself (Eminem), Run boy Run (Woodkid), Remember the Name (Fort Minor)
I test out my playlist in my long runs.
Good luck!
