The Most Detestable Running Playlist of All Time

Since it’s invention in 1882, humans have done a fantastic job at generating copious amounts of music, and we have absolutely zero intention of stopping. I’d strongly argue, that, out of all the creature that inhabit this planet, they definitely come in the top 10 of all time music producers. The top spot of course goes to whales, those big old boys and girls love a good sing along, god bless the whales, stop putting plastic in their dinner thank you very much. BUT! Is all human music good? Absolutely not. We are fundamentally flawed animals, stop judging us! To prove this therium, I asked the, very unopinionated, Twittersphere to hit me with their most hated popular songs. I then took this scientific research, and made a playlist that absolutely no one wants to listen to. So here it is, in all its shame, The Most Detestable Running Playlist of All Time:

Everyones most hated songs, all in one playlist.

In the year 2018 I ran the London Marathon in a hat that was slightly too big for me, with arms that hadn’t seen day light since 2003. The record books will tell you in was a rather warm one that day, from what I recall, it was very thirsty wor
Transformation Tuesday! Not for me though, for the entire globe. A pretty bold claim but bear with me. I’m taking a look back to the NYC Marathon Expo at the Javits Centre, which, like the Excel Center, is now a flipping field hospital. Very su

Still got an angry shin so no 1 piece of daily outside exercise for me, instead, in a bid to stay relevant, I did workout in the garage and bloody hell I hate burpees. STAY SAFE EVERYONE PLEASE. #ukrunchat
