Dopamine – a neurotransmitter that sends rock star vibes to your brain when you accomplish a goal. The more goals you accomplish, the more awesome you feel. Running helps increase these superhero feelings, as more dopamine is created with every run you complete. When your dopamine tank is full, it actually helps you run: fighting fatigue and helping your brain control movement, literally making you mentally stronger. An hour of hip-hop blended with dopamine-loving dubstep can be just what you need to reach your running goal for the day, encouraging you to do it again and again while making you stronger each and every time.

Unsure about dubstep? The stuff the kids are listening to is worth a try. This mix isn’t all about electronic artificiality. Blended with your favorite hip-hop, dance, and rock hits, the powerful addition of dubstep makes these songs unique, adding jolts of electricity to your run. It all starts with a Rihanna/Kesha mashup with Lil’ Jon transitioning you into a bit of Britney Spears. The dubstep style is subtle at first, but shows its full force at 23 minutes with, “I’m Breakin’ a Sweat” from Skrillex. A highlight around the 38 minute mark is Kanye West, Flux Pavillion, & Jay-Z with “I Can’t Stop,” sending you subliminal messages as you only have 20 minutes to go.

Hear Van Halen’s “Jump” like never before a crazy “Sandstorm” from Darude leads you toward the end of your run. After a bit of pop from The Band Perry and Usher, you’ll be surprised with a classic hit from The Fab Four, dubstep style, telling you to slow down and let it be. Like a vaccine, an injection of dopamine will flood that hat holder of yours as you reach your goal, no prescription required.
