    I don't run to music anymore. It distracts me from the rhythm of my feet on the road and the sound of my breath in my chest.

    But when I didn't know better, I liked running to Schubert.... the old dead composer....yeah, him.

    I have been running for years and always with music. It works well for me I would say.

    I like to run listening to Sunrise by Pulp, while I pretend to be Ivan Dobsky riding Mr. Hoppy.

    YES!!

    I've ran with music maybe once in the last 2 months. I like it much better that way. I can keep a steady pace much easier without music. You end up zoning out and thinking about random things all the time and the time actually passed really quickly.

    Slow songs? I just can't do that. It needs to have some sort of an up tempo beat.

    I guess this thread won't help you out then...............................

    For some reason I cannot run to slow songs. They make me lose momentum, fast.

    I run to more upbeat songs than I do slow, but it is personal preference for sure. I find it relaxing.

    The most commonly recognizable one is called "Video Games". She has a great retro sound!

    I also recommend almost anything by Matt Nathanson, and this isn't quite "slow", more mid-tempo, but the Lumineers have been in heavy rotation on my mp3 player lately.

    I often listen to a hawaiian radio station, imagine being on the beach, needing to get in shape for a bikini....

    I need and feed off of fast music 99% of the time.
    If it is slow music I'm craving I'm either depressed or in the mood for some lucky dube carribean style music.
