Hey everybody, welcome to Podrunner.

I'm Steve Boyette, and coming up is over an hour of some pretty great music at 184 beats

per minute.

For a mix called Get Serious.

This time out, I thought it would be fun to start out with an easy-going, feel-good vibe

that maintains even as the groove start to intensify, and then gradually gets more serious

and determined as the mix moves on, peaking with aggressive techno and uplifting trance

before hitting the feel-good finish.

I think the emotional arc of the music reflects the emotional state of a demanding workout.

You start off feeling pretty good.

Yeah, I got this.

And as you begin to feel the calorie burn, you start to bear down, set your sights, and

get down to business.

And this is kind of a soundtrack for that emotional arc.

If you're going 184 BPM, you're probably pretty serious about your training.

Your workout arsenal probably contains a smartphone or a music player, good ear buds or headphones,

good shoes, good workout clothes, a hydration bottle with a sport drink, maybe some apps.

We know it contains podrunner, and the only item on that list that didn't cost anything

is podrunner.

That's possible only because of listeners who value podrunner as a training tool enough

to help keep it going with a one-time or small monthly contribution.
