5 Christmas songs to add to your running playlist
Christmas is just around the corner, and there’s no better way to add a little festive cheer to your training than by injecting some holiday songs into your running playlist. We’ve hand-picked five of the best Christmas songs that will have you dashing through the snow, with a playlist that will “sleigh.”
“Run Run Rudolph” by Chuck Berry
Let’s kick off our festive running playlist with a classic rock ‘n’ roll vibe. “Run Run Rudolph” will have you moving your feet on the trails faster than Santa’s elves work on Christmas Eve. It’s the perfect tune to accompany your sprint intervals or those last few metres of a hill workout.
“Feliz Navidad” by José Feliciano
Add some international flair to your run with the Spanish Christmas anthem “Feliz Navidad.” Even if you don’t understand the lyrics, you’ll find it impossible not to break into song and dance during its catchy chorus. The repetitive rhythm is great for finding your stride and maintaining a steady pace.
“Santa Tell Me” by Ariana Grande
Infuse this playlist with a mix of festive energy and pop vibes with Grande’s holiday bop. This song has an upbeat tempo that can sync well with your pace, helping you maintain a steady rhythm and keep your motivation high during the holiday season. The song has a joyful vibe, which is perfect for lifting your spirits during a workout.
“Step Into Christmas” by Sir Elton John
What’s a running playlist without a touch of a music legend? Sir Elton’s “Step Into Christmas” has a festive and cheerful feel that is guaranteed to get you in the spirit this holiday season. The catchy chorus will certainly enhance your mood and pace, providing you with an upbeat singalong, no matter the frosty weather.
“Santa Claus Is Coming to Town” by Bruce Springsteen
This is an absolute classic, so lace up your running shoes and get ready to run like you’re being chased by Rudolph. Springsteen’s electric performance makes it impossible not to pick up the pace or be excited for the holidays.
