Typically for my long runs I just queue up a long House set and let it roll over the miles but for race day for the Hartford Half Marathon I wanted to put together something with a little context. At first I figured I’d key off states of sanity but digging through my collection turned up a massive load of songs with running or run in the title. Path of least resistance, right?
