There is a reason why “fun” rhymes with “run.” Why?  Endorphins. These are magical little creatures that carry buckets of happiness to our brain cells when we exercise. Researchers claim that these tiny hormonal unicorns create something called a “runner’s high,” since they are stronger in runners than in let’s say - jazzercisers. So next time you’re looking for an endorphin fix, tie on some kicks and plug in this mix for a fun run and an all-natural high.

Runner’s High is an hour long, high energy pop and dance mix, showered with cleverly placed lyrics to rouse your run. Getting tired at only 15 minutes in? No way! Bassment Jaxx’s “Where’s Your Head At” blends into Flo-Rida’s “Right Round” to keep your head in check and your lazy thoughts at bay.  The energy stays strong all the way through the end thanks to lyrics like “The sound is my remedy - breathe in the energy” from Rihanna’s, “Whose That Chick.” Will I Am contributes with “I ain’t gonna stop until I’m done. I ain’t gonna quit until I won” from “Don’t Stop the Party” at 24 minutes.

This mix is not only powerful, but also plain fun. You’ve waited 37 minutes for it – it’s overnight sensation Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe” with a hint of techno and dubstep to make you feel slightly older than 16. At 40 minutes, you know you can handle another 20 thanks to Calvin Harris and Neyo’s “Let’s Go.” After all, “It’s all about where you’re going, no matter where you’ve been.” Madonna and the King of Pop both add their staying power to this youthful mix before Flo-Rida’s appropriately titled, “Run” signals that time is up. All you have to do now is slow down and ride your runner’s high.
