When I'm running the beach, Boston's More Than a Feeling gets me started. If I finish with it, I tend to sprint.

    Almost anything Offspring or Queens of the Stone Age. I like to end with The Heavy, usually What Makes a Good Man?

    Recently I made the mistake of letting my FL choose my workout playlist. It started with Britney Spears - Stronger, and only got worse from there.

    I heard the song "Happy" the other day, before an 8 mile run. I had the beat in my head the entire time. Made the run go well. Don't have any 1 song.

    .... it's screaming metalcore. 100% of my running playlist is screaming metal. It's like fuel. Sometimes I run to hiphop... but I don't do well mileage wise. It's weird.

    Ways To Go, by Grouplove. Keeps me grounded, humble, gets me ready to go. After that I usually slide into Shakira or (don't judge me) Kesha or something that really hits that golden ratio of beats per minute. For strength training, I prefer Kamelot or Halestorm or anything along those lines - really hard rock or symphonic metal, something to make me feel invincible.
