Whether you have been hitting the pavement with your feet for years or are a beginner runner, there is nothing better than a new pair of running shoes and fresh new music to put the hop in your stride. Though there is not an app for new shoes (yet), there is an app for adding fresh new music to a workout. RockMyRun is a fantastic and fun music app that offers cadence-based playlists created by DJs to put some fun in a run. The uses for this app go beyond running with cadence, in the form of beats per minute (bpm), as the key to its flexibility. The main feature of RockMyRun is the use of "beats per minute" as the basis of each DJ mix. A user searches and selects specific playlists in a genre of their preference that also matches their natural running, or even cycling, cadence. The genres are diverse and include options such as oldies, rock, classical, Christian, hip hop, and country music.
