Questions, answered

Should music match my running cadence?

Exactly. Count your steps for 30 seconds, double it, and ask Meloro for that BPM. Runners locked to cadence feel less fatigued.

How long should the mix be?

Match your goal duration plus a 5-minute buffer for cooldown. A 60-minute run deserves a 65-minute track so you are never caught in silence.

Can I get a version without lyrics?

Yes. Instrumental is often better for long runs so your mind can wander and you avoid catchy earworms that distract on mile 8.
