    I don't really have a favorite song, but just anything from Combichrist/Icon of Coil/PanzerAG really gets the energy up on my inner Rivethead.

    Then again, my playlist also includes Toad the Wet Sprocket and Qntal, which is good for re-centering and getting my focus back on point so I don't get all "raaaaaarrrr" and run myself ragged too quickly and stuff like Fever Ray, Glasser and Cherry Poppin' Daddies for ramping back up.

    I don't really listen to music when I run outside, but when I lift, I like to listen to hard rock. Currently my fave workout song is "Dead But Rising" by Volbeat.

    A long-time favourite is The Dog Days Are Over, Florence + The Machine.

    Also there's an anime on YouTube called RWBY, the music from that is generally awesome running music, and that entire soundtrack is like ear crack to me right now. So that too!

    Anything by Daft Punk.

    Usually I'm into more alternative music but I find I need to listen to more dance/trance/electro fast paced songs when I'm working out.

    Sometimes Queens of the stone age can be good to work out to though.

    Itchy Finger. Ballad of the Irish Horses. I do almost 100% of my running to bagpipes. Strange, I know. But I run waaaay better listening to that than anything else. I'm starting to download tunes now to put together a 2:30:00 hour playlist. :)

    I've been into any mix by a DJ called Pumpkin lately. My friends are obsessed with the guy right now but his stuff is as good for running as it is for dancing.

    I'm just your normal, ordinary girl out for a friendly run until Jessie J "Do it Like a Dude" shuffles on.

    Then I am suddenly badass.

    I don't listen to music when I run outdoors, but when I'm forced onto the treadmill I have my favorites I like to run to:

    Bark at the Moon - Ozzy
    Wasted Years (live version)- Iron Maiden
    Going Out in Style - The Dropkick Murphy's
    Fantasy - Aldo Nova

    Although they are have slow sections, Layla by Derek and the Dominoes and the live version of Freebird really get me in the zone.

    LOL

    Well, clearly there's a reason we listen to headphones! I am obviously the only one here that listens to country! LOL

    FWIW Booze Cruise by Black Jack Billy made me run an extra 3 and a half minutes past my house and then I had to run back (just over half a mile total!) and Fight Like a Girl by Bombshell always makes me pick up my pace.

    On the flip side I also have my playlist faves I run to:

    Supernatural - Daughtry
    Bad Girlfriend - Theory of a Deadman
    Crutch - Theory of a Deadman
    Crazy ***** - Buckcherry
    Brooklyn - Buckcherry
