ipod workout music sources?

[midwestchick]

Hi everyone!

My sons got Ipods for Christmas, and DH and I loved them so much we got ourselves the cool electric blue one! We have had so much fun loading our favorite music from CD's and from itunes.

My question is this -- I know there are podcasts for running and prepping for 5k's and such, but I'm not a big fan of the techno beat music. Are there any sources for, say, certain walking and running speeds? Real music for 4mph walk, 9min. pace running, etc?

Thanks!

Heidi

Heidi,
If you have an I-pod and connected to the internet it should bring you to the I-tune site. There you can search for fitness music and you will be able to find music for training. Not all of them have a specific walk/run pace but some do. I have "old" real "old" tapes with paced music and I found them very useful. They keep you exactly at the proper pace. Shape Magazine also maybe a place to look for specific paced music.
Good luck.
