Doesn't have run in it, but my go-to song if I'm flagging during a run a bit, is Eye of the Tiger by Survivor - channeling Rocky!

"Marathon" by Rush

It's not how fast you can go
The force goes into the flow
If you pick up the beat
You can forget about the heat

More than just survival
More than just a flash
More than just a dotted line
More than just a dash

It's a test of ultimate will
The heartbreak climb uphill
Got to pick up the pace
If you want to stay in the race

More than just blind ambition
More than just simple greed
More than just a finish line
Must feed this burning need -

In the long run...

From first to last
The peak is never passed
Something always fires the light
That gets in your eyes
One moment's high
And glory rolls on by
Like a streak of lightening
That flashes and fades
In the summer sky

Your meters may overload
You can rest at the side of the road
You can miss a stride
But nobody gets a free ride

More than high performance
More than just a spark
More than just the bottom line
Or a lucky shot in the dark -

In the long run...

You can do a lot in a lifetime
If you don't burn out too fast
You can make the most of the distance
First you need endurance -
First you've got to last...

i rarely run with music, but jay-z & kanye west "n**gas in paris" the song has the most perfect beat for running. i think i hit repeat four times on my mp3 player last time i ran with it.

All right ... here's where y'all laugh me out of here ...

Runaround Sue by Dion and the Belmonts (whooo???????)

Here's my story, it's sad but true
It's about a girl that I once knew
She took my love, then ran around
With every single guy in town

Hayp hayp
(Whoah ooh)
Bum da hady hady
Hayp hayp
Bum da hady hady
Hayp hayp
Bum da hady hady hayp

I should have known it from the very start
This girl will leave me with a broken heart
A-listen people what I'm telling you
A-keep away from a Run Around Sue

I miss her lips and the smile on her face
The touch of her hair and this girl's warm embrace
So if you don't wanna cry like I do
A-keep away from a Run Around Sue

(Whoah ooh)
Hayp hayp
Bum da hady hady
Hayp hayp
Bum da hady hady
Hayp hayp
Bum da hady hady hayp oh

She likes to travel around
She'll love you but she'll put you down
Now people let me put you wise
Sue goes out with other guys

Here's the moral and the story
From the guy who knows
I fell in love and my love still grows
Ask any fool that she ever knew
They'll say, keep away from a Run Around Sue

Yeah, keep away from this girl
I don't know what she'll do
Keep away from Sue

She likes to travel around
She'll love you but she'll put you down
Now people let me put you wise
A she goes out with other guys

Here's the moral and the story
From the guy who knows
I fell in love and my love still grows
Ask any fool that she ever knew
They'll say, a keep away from a Run Around Sue

Stay away from that girl
Don't you know what she'll do now?
Whoah..
