Spotify
Music streaming, and the training playlist people build inside it
Streams music and podcasts on a free tier with ads or a paid one without. What puts it in training routines is the playlist: a fixed running order for the warm-up, for the hard intervals, for the walk home. The year-end Wrapped summary turns twelve months of listening into something people pass around.

Exercise physiologist · Women Are Not Small Men
At the end of 2025 she gave the newsletter over to two of her own things instead of the usual science: a solo gym workout she called a rare share, and the highlights of her Spotify Wrapped.
