This ride turned out different (and BETTER) than expected! After years of randomly using covers in my rides, I thought doing a 100% cover mix would be great for a traditional 45 to 60-minute HIIT class. Before I knew it, my first cut was about 120 minutes! After my second cut, clean up, and sorting, I ended up right at 90 minutes…perfect length for an Endurance ride. This is more hill-oriented which will make for a spicy Endurance ride.
One of my favorites on this is Train’s rendition of Led Zeppelin’s Ramble On (see the link below). Others that I have used before: Mrs. Robinson, Careless Whisper, Beat It, My Pony, Smooth Criminal, Ride Wit Me. Along with a bunch new-to-me finds…THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE MIX – on repeat. Does anyone else obsessively listen to their class playlists outside of class? I do it often!
