In an attempt to change the feeling of my playlists, a lot of which are very New Romantic and 80’s oriented, I pleaded for some help on the C25K Forum to create a new playlist for running. We now have a (long overdue) Ska & TwoTone list on Spotify. I’ve tested it on a 4km walk and it’s a nice rhythm, so hopefully will spur me on beyond the 1200km mark.
