Welcome to your world.
You like to rock and keep fit. You have an MP3 player and find it fun to take out on the path while you walk and jog. You have some favorite songs, but you’d like more: more playlists artfully arranged, with the music you like at the beat that works for you.
You’ve come to the right place.
PODWOGGING is what I call the exercise that’s a hobby and a workout rolled into one. At my website, Podwogging.com, you’ll find all playlists of rock, pop, soul, R&B, folk—virtually every form of popular music with a beat—all designed to be used with your portable music player (POD) while you walk and jog. (A WOG is a combination of Walk and Jog.) You’ll find lists at all pace levels, from very light walks to pulse-pounding jogs, as well as very short lists (Quickies) to lists over an hour long (Wog-a-Thons). Every song in each list has a BPM (Beats Per Minute) rating, making it easy to see each song’s pace, and each list has a pace rating based on these BPMs.
I don’t sell these songs—for that you’ll either have to get them off albums, or download them from places like Apple’s iTunes or Amazon.com; nearly all the songs in these lists are available online. Chances are you already have many of them on your computer or POD, just waiting to be put into a perfect podwog playlist.
The current Weekly Wog is a 34-minute list of songs by the Cars, called Jogging in Stereo. I’ll be posting more woglists and blogging about wogging every week, too. Check it out!
