Hi,

I'm at a low-intermediate level in my Japanese studies right now (finishing Minna no Nihongo 2) and I was wondering what I should listen to while jogging? Two possibilities come to my mind:

1) news - listening to different news report every time I go jogging. But, I'm afraid it would be difficult to find easily downloadable news reports a few times a week.

2) audiobooks - it's pretty easy to find them, but it might be very difficult to get the meaning and the plot so I don't know if it would be any beneficial.

What do you think? Maybe you have some other ideas?

Thanks!

Oh Yeah, Music is great to help with the rhythm and your pronunciation. Great singers are: Kazumasa Oda, he is from Tokyo area, Mika Nakashima. Other language learners: any recommendations?

I second YUI.

Depending on your tastes, you may or may not like Capsule, Perfume, and the Back Horn.
