Dear Friends, Good morning and welcome to my 11th annual Thanksgiving Lounge episode. This mix was inspired by my drive to pick up the pieces of the past 8 months and look at them thru a different pair of lenses. 2020 has been the most devastating year for me financially and emotionally. My partner and I have been thrown curveballs back to back all year long. And it has been extremely challenging for the two of us. The other day we were driving and talking about how we wanted to go on a resort vacation and simply relax our body and minds. Knowing that that wouldn’t happen right this minute I decided to create a beautiful Balearic bliss mix that we could use to transport ourselves and imagine our vacation dream. Luckily for us we have 2 VR headsets so I think we will head to GREECE. Thanksgiving Lounge 2020 – Sunset Guitar mix is a mesmerizing Balearic Bliss. Slip into something comfortable, relax and enjoy the journey.

Good morning runners, Tonight, I pulled this mix out of the archives and have re-uploaded it to my podcast. For those of you who were app subscribers this mix was titled “For Every Forever”. Moving forward I am going to be naming all my mixes as episodes for easier searching.

I am returning to my much loved and revered St. Peter alias sound with a brand new mix to whet your appetite and mesmerize you while on your run. “Sunset Run” expertly showcases the kind of sonic magic that WOWs Running To The Beat subscribers time and time again.

Tempo Run – 128-130bpm Between Us is harmonic, sexy, groovy and hypnotic.  The perfect running music curation for getting lost in your run and watching time fly by.

This weeks mix “I Believe” is an awesome “Tempo Run”.  It’s also perfect to listen to on race day. Also…

This weeks mix “Fall Into You” is an awesome “Tempo Run”. Also called threshold runs, this is a run performed at the fastest pace you can sustain for a certain period of time. These workouts help you increase sustained speed and the amount of time you can sustain that pace. They are very challenging runs that require some time to recover from afterward. The best way to figure out the pace you can run is to focus on your breathing – you should be able to talk in broken sentences but not be able to carry on a full conversation or be gasping for air. Example: 1 mile of jogging to warm up, followed by 3 miles at the fastest pace that can be sustained, followed by 1 mile of jogging to cool down. Fall Into You is an awesome mix for helping you keep a sustained pace for a period of time. The mix starts off with “This Feeling” by Sunbrothers followed by “Fall Into You” by Cosmic Gate two truly magical productions.  As the mix progresses it becomes more powerful and energizes you every step of the way. Feature Songs * This Feeling – Sunbrothers, Varsente * Fall Into You – Cosmic Gate * Merle – Kyau & Albert * Far away – Mark Reeve * Mega – Super8 & Tab * True Love – Super8 & Tab, Envy Monroe * Homestead – Ralphie B

This weeks mix “Cosmos” is awesome for an “Interval Run”. These are workouts that contain short or long bursts of intense effort separated by equal or slightly longer segments of slower running, jogging or walking. The intense segments should have you pushing yourself to a point where you are gasping for air and counting the seconds until you can stop. These running workouts help increase speed and boost running economy, efficiency and fatigue resistance. Example : 1 mile of jogging to warm up, followed by 5 sets of 1000 meter runs at 5k pace with light jogging between intervals, followed by 1 mile of jogging to cool down. Featured Songs: * Find The Sun – Raz Nitzan, Moya Brennan, – Solarstone Remix * Eugina – Salt Tank – Ciaran McAuley Remix) * Looking – Pierre Pienaar, Amy Kirkpatrick * Endless Horizon – Soren Andrews * Shine – The Space Brothers – Join Van Deynhoven Remix * The Only One – Christina Novelli, Saad Ayub * All Alone – Eloquenti, Victoriya * Be There For You – Amy Kirkpatrick, Dark Fusion * How Can I – Craig Connelly, Jessica Lawrence – James Dymond Remix

This weeks mix “Alternate Universe” is an awesome “Tempo Run“. Also called threshold runs, this is a run performed at the fastest pace you can sustain for a specified period of time. These workouts help you increase sustained speed and the amount of time you can maintain that pace. They are very challenging runs that require some time to recover from afterward. The best way to figure out the speed you can run is to focus on your breathing – you should be able to talk in broken sentences but not be able to carry on a full conversation or be gasping for air. Example: 1 mile of jogging to warm up, followed by 3 miles at the fastest pace that can be sustained, followed by 1 mile of jogging to cool down. Alternate Universe is an excellent mix for race training.  The music starts of with a great remix of Black Parade by My Chemical Romance remixed by Steve Aoki and then goes into some killer EDM.  The tempo and energy are consistent throughout the mix.  As always enjoying the musical experience while running is the essential element of Running To The Beat.  Why? Because you will get lost in the music, workout harder, longer and have fun! Featured Songs: * Black Parade – My Chemical Romance, Steve Aoki * Lovingly – Oliver Smith * The Last Dancer – Armin Van Burren * My Own Hymn – Above & Beyond, Alpha 9, Zoe Johnston * Rain Upon My Skin – Airwave * Tumbler – Thomas Gold * Since You’ve Been Gone – Novaspace, Joseph Vincent Musically Yours, Peter Canellis

This weeks mix “Eye of The Tiger” is a fun “Recovery Run”. Also called easy runs, these are short runs done at a relatively relaxed pace. They are best done after a hard workout, such as interval or tempo runs, so you can still add some mileage to your training routine without pushing your body too much. Feel free to do these as slow as you need to to overcome any lingering fatigue or soreness. Example : 3 miles at a comfortable pace on the day after intervals, hill repeats or tempo runs. Eye of The Tiger is excellent for race training because the music starts off light and stays light.  The tempo and energy are consistent throughout the mix.  As always enjoying the musical experience while running is the essential element of Running To The Beat.  Why? Because you will get lost in the music, workout harder, longer and have fun! Featured Songs: * Tearing Up Your Heart * Eye of The Tiger * Love Sensation * Like A Prayer * Let the Sunshine * Staying Alive * Another Brick in The Wall Musically Yours, Peter Canellis

This weeks mix “Ophelia” is all about the “Progressive Run”. This run is designed to begin at your natural pace and end at a faster pace, closer to how you hope to perform during a race. Progressive runs are moderately challenging workouts and require more recovery time than base runs, but less than tempo or interval runs. Example : 5 miles at your natural pace, 1 mile at marathon pace. Ophelia is perfect for race training because the music starts off light but gradually gets more powerful and stays powerful for 45 minutes.  As always enjoying the musical experience while running is the essential element of Running To The Beat.  Why? Because you will get lost in the music, workout harder, longer and have fun! Featured Songs: * Breaking Waves – Ruslan Ridges * Seconds Away – Super 8 * Adelante – Sash * Nymeria – Dirkie Coetzee * Something To Believe In – Ferry Corsten * Sutra – Alchimyst * Rocket Punch – Jordan Suckly Musically Yours, Peter Canellis

Throwback Thursday “Italian Tea” is all about the Fun, Loving, Run.  I created this mix in 2011, and it was a favorite amongst RTTB listeners. Today, I received an email from Salomon Figueroa Riquelme asking for me to re-upload the mix.  “Hi, Peter! I have been looking for “Italia tea” for some time without finding it in any portal … How can I get it? It’s vital for me since listening to that session we fell in love with my wife while we ran. A hug!!  Salomon, I am so excited to hear that you and your wife fell in love while you ran listening to Italian Tea.  The POWER OF MUSIC!! I hope everyone loves this throwback mix as much as we do!!! Musically yours, Peter

Good Evening Runners, Welcome to Running To The Beat.  Running To The Beat gets you running with the Best Running Music.  We kick off this series with an incredible mix titled “Rising Sun.”  Rising Sun is as uplifting as the first rays of the morning sun. Uplifting chords, eruptive melodies, contemplative lyrics and gorgeous vocals are what define this fantastic mix. “Rising Sun” will kick off your training by putting wings on your feet and keep you running until dawn.  Perfect for a tempo run or negative split. Tempo runs include intervals faster than your default pace, but not so fast they are unsustainable. The duration of tempo intervals vary depending on your race goals, but typically last minutes or miles, and should be performed at a “comfortably hard” pace, not a sprint. Tempo runs can alternate with a speed workout in a weekly training plan, as doing both in one week may be too taxing. Tempo Running to “Rising Sun” * First 5 -10 minutes = warm up * 10-40 minutes – Tempo Pace * 40-50 – Cool Down Playlist * Sunrise feat April Bender – Arty * I’m Holding On – Allan Natal * Golden Skies – Vanto, Jimmy Clash * Bad Connection – Luciana, Will Sparks * Yellow – Zaa, Mino Safy * Coming Down – Tiesto * Santa Monica Sunset – Dennis Sender * Fell For You – Somna and Diana Leigh * Recuerdos Distantes – Diego Morill * Reboot – ReOrder * Smoke – Saad Ayub * Midnight Sun feat Julie Elven – Driftmoon

Listeners, After my cancer diagnosis I decided to turn part of my focus towards healing music.  But then I ran into a conundrum.  I realized I didn’t have enough time to do both exercise and healing mixes. Trying to focus on doing both consistently was not working.  So I decided to combine the two therapies into one.  Running To The Beat is evolving into more than just great running mixes.  Running to the Beat is “Healing Beat by Beat”.   As I’ve been learning to deal with my cancer diagnosis I’ve also discovered new sound therapies that I have found extremely beneficial and I will be sharing them with you. With the use of binaural beats, solfeggio and isochronic tones, chakra scales, and frequencies I’ve been creating mixes all sorts of mixes that will help kill cancer cells, improve you confidence, help you focus, drive motivation, repair liver damage, improve your mindset, release anxiety, and so much more.  There are so many frequencies to play with and I am excited to be sharing them with you. Musically Yours, Dj St. Peter
