It's easy to write off running in the winter as a crazy idea, but it's pretty much the most comfortable urban outdoor activity you can do this time of year. After a few minutes, the coldness balances out your body temperature while rain and sweat become indistinguishable. By the time you're done and showered, you've forgotten how depressed you were about the weather.

This mix starts off with some soulful atmospheric tracks with just enough oomph to overcome that initial coldness. It delves into deeper territory while you're finding your groove before ascending into some upbeat (yet not over the top) cuts providing energy to finish strong.
