Sometimes the difference between a good run and a great run is the right playlist. That’s why we’re introducing Running Mode, a new personalized running experience that transforms playlists into running sessions tailored to your goals, music taste, and tempo.
Whether you’re training for a race, heading out for an easy jog, or just want a more motivating walk, Running Mode helps you spend less time hunting for the right music and more time moving.
How to find your rhythm
Getting started is simple. Premium users on iOS in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and Sweden can find Running Mode in the Fitness Hub beginning today.
From there, choose one of 25 curated running presets and make it your own by customizing your workout type (like interval, steady, or pyramid), duration, Beats per Minute, and what type of music you’re in the mood for. Press play, and Spotify will guide your run with music tailored to your workout.
Running Mode gives you personalized music, matches beats to your selected tempo, and seamlessly moves through tracks for a more fluid, motivating soundtrack.
A coach in your corner
Need a little extra encouragement? Running Mode also includes optional audio cues in English to help guide you through your workout. It’s like a supportive friend running alongside you, offering timely cues and motivation without getting in the way of your music.
Running Mode complements the fitness content already on Spotify, including Peloton classes and creator workout videos. Think of it as one more tool for getting the most out of your movement.
The next step in personalized fitness
Spotify has long been the go-to for finding the perfect soundtrack for every moment. Since we first introduced Prompted Playlists, fitness-based prompts have been some of the feature’s most popular uses, reflecting a growing demand for more personalized workout experiences. Running Mode is the next step, creating a running experience powered by your goals and the music you love, so every run feels more energizing and uniquely yours.
Ready to try it for yourself? Lace up your shoes and find Running Mode on the Spotify app, rolling out for iOS users in select markets beginning today.
