Kelly Swimming Freestyle in Florida - Swimming Playlist
In one month I will be on a plane to Florida for a bit of Winter sunshine and one of my favorite activities when I am in Naples is swimming outside.  Granted, there is an outdoor pool here in London but it is really not the same. As I get ready for the trip I am updating the playlist on my swim MP3 player and these are the new songs I am adding that will be great to swim to: 

  • 10,000 Hours – Dan + Shay with Justin Bieber
  • Boyfriend – Ariana Grande
  • Carry On – Kygo and Rita Ora
  • Circles – Post Malone
  • Con Calma Remix – Daddy Yankee
  • DANCE – CLMD
  • Drip Too Hard – Lil Baby

  • Old Town Road, Diplo Remix – Ll Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus
  • Piece of Your Heart – Meduza

    What a great gift idea. I have a good friend who is a swimmer and this would make the perfect gift for her.

    Must make the work out so much more fun.

    What a good daughter you are to make a playlist for your dad. I’m sure he really appreciates it.

    Your dad’s list is too funny. Reminds me of a lot of songs my mom used to sing when I was little. Great idea for any swimmer.

    Some of these are really oldies but goodies. There’s nothing like a good upbeat song to get you to do more than you thought you could do. Swim hard.
