Ouch! Only 3 stars for this one? Where did I go wrong in putting this one together?

@djriggz i think it's great! nothing like some serious girl-power songs to push through a cardio session after work!

@djriggz, I really like your other mixes, but since you asked "Where did I go wrong" on this one, I am going to be honest. I feel like this kind of mix is cliche. I feel like these are the CDs I'm constantly sent for group fitness classes. I feel like when people put "girl power" mixes together, I end up with bubblegum pop/top 40. I would like to see a girl power mix with more... power?! More edge. More Rock. (No, Avril Lavigne doesn't count). More Indie. Less Disney Channel Divas. .... now, that doesn't mean I don't like this mix. I would actually use this mix for a group fitness class where I have a broad age spectrum who will appreciate the sassiness of this mix. But I wouldn't Rock my Run with it. (I wanted to send you this privately because I KNOW not everyone feels this way but I did feel that you "guys" who put together "grrl" playlists could use a little direction from some of us running "grrls." )

@Jessica - Thanks for the love! Good to hear not everyone thought it was "meh" :)

@crazyrunningch icks - I hear you and really appreciate the honesty! It's really important that I get feedback from people with all kinds of interests so I can put together mixes that meet a variety of needs.

While most of this mix came in via request, I am definitely open to working on something less pop-y as well. Perhaps we could collaborate on something more edgy? Let's exchange emails: djriggz at rockmyrun.com

Ran to this last night and loved it. had a smile on my face! Fun mix to run to on a cold, dark Boston night with snow on the way (and a little on the ground!)

I thoroughly enjoyed running to this. Though I would probably find it a bit embarrassing if anyone could overhear some of the songs I was listening to (ie Spice Girls and Gloria Gaynor!). Guilty pleasure all the way.

@djriggz... I LOVED this mix!!! Excellent! I looked down at my timer expecting to see 2 more rounds ( like usual, I start getting tired when there are 2 more rounds left) and I was very surprised when I looked and seen I only had seconds left of my last round! Music pushed me along the whole time.. def. my GO TO. Keep'em coming!

@djriggz- I just signed up with RockMyRun and so far this mix has been my favorite-- I liked the fades and intros for each song because it puts a new spin on the Top 40 songs you've chosen. It's one of those mixes that makes me feel like I didn't just download a mix that has all the same songs that I have on my own playlist-- nice work!

This is my favorite, so far. I added 2 miles to my normal run and had a great time doing it!

I really didn't like this mix.
I thought the mixing was terrible and the sound was really tinny.
13 minutes and 20-21mins in - have a listen. Awful - sorry.

good mix but the random really slow Katy Perry song "The one that got away" kind of ruins it when you're going fast and then that comes on...

this was my first download from Rock My Run and overall, I thought it was a solid mix. Some of the transitions are a bit rough -- but I like the song selection a lot.
