Serena Williams Releases Running Mix Tapes

Posted by Mitch Michaels on 02.20.2008

Timbaland, MJB, Fergie get Serena ready to run...

The Nike Sport Music series, which has recently released a running mix tape/coaching CD by Lance Armstrong, have tapped Serena Williams for their latest project.

Serena's custom-made workouts are designed to improve speed, build stamina, and give you a boost when needed. The first workout is a 30-minute interval run set to a series of high-octane hits by Timbaland, Nicole Scherzinger, Fergie, Daddy Yankee and other Interscope Records artists. While you listen to the music, Serena sets the pace and offer tips and encouragement to help you complete your run.

Her Spontaneous Speed Workout consists of a warm-up period, followed by time stretches of fast-paced running, each followed by a chance to recover with help from Serena's favorite music, a mix of Mary J. Blige, Vanessa Carlton, Timbaland, and many more.

You can check out preview mp3s and tracklists below. Both mixes are available on iTunes.
