    Flo-Rida's "wild ones, good feeling, and right round" are all good to run to. Avril Laviegne "girlfriend" is another good one. If you can dance to it, you can run to it.

    Rihanna & Nicki Minaj currently dominate my running playlist. They have really upbeat beats to keep you going if you're into that.

    Chris Cornell- "You Know My Name" (Casino Royale)

    Madonna- "Die Another Day" (Die Another Day)

    Garbage- "The World is Not Enough" (The World is Not Enough)

    Sheryl Crow- "Tomorrow Never Dies" (Tomorrow Never Dies)

    Tina Turner- "GoldenEye" (GoldenEye)

    Paul McCartney- "Live and Let Die" (Live and Let Die)

    I'm curious to see the replies. I need more fast beat songs, they keep me going!

    David Guetta is currently getting me through all my runs. I'm more of a rock n'roll or pop girl normally, but David Guetta just keeps me pushing...

    Metronomy's "My Heart Rate Rapid" is great. It's a nice, quick pace, it's varied without being overly distracting (except in terms of getting you into the groove), and the "electronica" style of it makes me have fun with it!

    I like running to stuff by Black Eyed Peas...especially Pump It. Also like Ke$ha and the more recent Brittney Spears :)

    Wow! Thanks everyone! I'm going to add them all in my next playlist, (even the few I don't know) and try them out! My C25K is in 3 weeks and my runs are getting longer, which equals more music.

    all these songs are excellent, but my favourite is by Melissa Etheridge called I Run For Life. It motivates me as soon as I hear it.

    Knights of Cydonia by Muse, I like the bit where it speeds up in the middle, it is hard not to pick up the pace at that point. Their song Survival is fun to run to as well, the lyrics are

    Race, it’s a race
    But I’m gonna win
    Yes I’m gonna win
    And will light the fuse
    I’ll never lose
    And I choose to survive
    Whatever it takes
    You won’t ṗull ahead
    I’ll keep up the pace
    And I’ll reveal my strength
    To the whole human race
    Yes I’m gonna win
