1. Billboard’s Jogging playlist
I know some of you runners out there are shaking your heads at the fact that they called it jogging, but remember: Jogging isn’t a bad word!

2. Jon Lyon’s Badass Run playlist
We’ve officially found your new favorite quick-morning-run playlist. This 29-minute playlist, courtesy of Run215 founder Jon Lyons, is filled with fast-paced beats from Missy Elliot to CHVRCHES to Pusha T, that will wake you up and get you moving.
3. Be Well Philly’s Ultimate Workout Playlist
