My daughter is running the London Marathon on Sunday, any playlist suggestions? 🏅

This is her 5th full marathon and she always starts her races with U2's "Where the Streets Have No Name" as the first words are "I wanna run....."

It's especially hard when you hit that wall of physical exertion and your body feels depleted, you're ready to give up, but the end is in sight. This is when music kicks in as her primary motivator....she would welcome any suggestions for inspiration!

Run...baby girl...run like the wind! 🏃🏻?♀️👟🏅🇺🇸🍾
