Playlist for San Francisco Marathon

I just came back from San Francisco where I ran my second full marathon. The race was very, very tough for all the uphills and downhills, and not so many spectators cheering for us!! But, through the course, I enjoyed the great scenary of the city.

As a part of my preparation, I had some hard time compiling my playlist for the race as well because the only HipHop musician I know from the Bay area is Kero One. So, my playlist starts with his songs.

"When The Sunshine Comes" (Kero One feat. Ben Westbeech)
"In All The Wrong Places" (Kero One)
"Keep Pushin'" (Kero One)
"We Stay Fly" (Kero One feat. Othello & Dminor)
"Remember All That" (Kero One)

But, I couldn't just listen to all his songs for rotation through the race, so I added some of Apple's iPod commercial songs such as:

"Mi Swing Es Tropical" (Nickodemus)
"Hey Mama" (Black Eyed Peas)

And West Coast HipHop and the like for the rest:

"Don't Stay" (Linkin Park)
"Fly With U" (Far East Movement feat. Cassie)
"Young, Wild & Free" (Snoop Dogg & Wiz Khalifa feat. Bruno Mars)

I couldn't achieve my target time, but albeit the hilly course, am proud to made it faster than my first full marathon in Miami!!
