Now runners can visit a special website and create a tracklist based on the route they're taking, their taste in music and just how much they want to feel the burn. The Boost Your Run site is simple to use, offering a selection of well-known existing running routes to choose from based on your location, and the playlist is created by entering your ultimate running song.
