Music makes me Lose Control…

That’s not necessarily true. But I do love me some Missy Elliott.

I am, however, a music runner. It pumps me up. It keeps me motivated, and often, can actually make me faster. Recently, I’ve been struggling with my usual mixes, because there’s always a song or two that brings me down at just the wrong moment. So, I’ve decided I’m building a new #RnRDC Playlist this weekend to get me a shiny new PR. Okay, the playlist will just help. The brilliant coaching from Chris and a lot of logged miles will get me the PR.

Here’s the thing: I need ideas! I need help building the perfect playlist that’s a mix of pop, rock, and rap, both current and old school, that will keep me be-bopping over 13.1 miles.

Hers what I’ve got so far (not necessarily in this order):

- Ni**az in Paris – Kanye & Jay Z

- Empire – Shakira

- Empire State of Mind – Jay Z

- Shake it off – Taylor Swift

- Mr. Brightside – The Killers

- Still the One – Orleans

- Still into You – Paramore

- Lose Yourself – Eminem

- Sugar – Maroon 5

- Lose Control – Missy Elliott

- Shut up and Dance – Walk the Moon

So, what songs should I add to make this mix rock and roll me thought the Capital City?
