I know people have probably posted about this before but I am getting so sick of the songs on my ipod. What are some good songs that I can download to run to that will get me pumped???

    I don't know what kind of music you like but here is a couple of my favorites:

    "I'm Ready" Wyclef Jean

    "It's A Long Way to the Top" ACDC

    "Brick House" Commodores (haha)

    "Into the Groove" Madonna

    "Beat It" Michael Jackson

    I also have quite a bit of Akon, Natasha Beddingfield and Meatloaf! Hope something in here helped:smile:

    I find House or Garage music is really good for working out to as it is fast but not too heavy.

    I listen to cadence when i run/jog. I downloaded a few albums from iTunes. Songs are motivational and they keep you in step. Besides, I was in the Navy for 8 years and I like running to cadence.

    "Dog days are over" by Florence and the Machine always makes me go that little bit faster.

    I like Pink, Lady Gaga, Kesha, a few songs from Legally Blonde the Musical, and Miley Cyrus' Party in the USA. Pretty much whatever tempo fits my pace :)

    MIKA I love listening to his stuff when working out, most of it is up beat and fun to listen to. I usually look silly because i cannot help but dance a little while i listen and run.

    The Ramones' Greatest hits is a great album to run to as it has a good, driving beat. The Red Hot Chili Pepper's album Californication has some great songs to run to. And, if I ever find myself needing a moral booster near the end of my run, this is my go-to song (the album version, sans intro): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qWahwJOM1I
