    Flo-rida "good feeling" and "wild one"
    Avril Lavigne "girlfriend"
    Joan Jett "bad reputation"
    B.o.B "magic"
    If you can dance to it - you can run to it.

    I'm not a big fan of music during exercise because I want to keep pace with the music, not with however fast I should be doing it. However, you can get albums of music at a constant pace. I'm a big fan of Classical Workouts.

    I've heard of playlists set at a constant pace, where can I find them?

    Rockmyrun gives you the option to choose playlists to match cadence. You get a few free credits for signing up the a credit a month. It's pretty reasonable.

    For me -
    Who's That Chick - Rhinanna (only the song is too short)
    Clique - Kanye West
    World Wide Suicide - Pearl Jam
    Move - MIMS
    The Motto - Drake

    (These are my pushing the pace songs. I have different music for slower runs)

    ETA - I listed running songs. Lifting songs are different.

    I agreewith Bathsheba, in the fact that music can be bad to run to in that you will run to the pace of the music, which is why I recommend techno music. You can easily find songs that have a great fast-paced beat and so many variations your are bound to find something you like. Also, the songs tend to run 6-10 minutes on average. I like song counting as I run to encourage me to keep going. Knowing that I only have to run to five or six songs tricks my mind into feeling like time goes by faster.

    I listen to any song that is upper beat and makes me feel good or reminds me of my "skinny/party" days. It's motivating!

    When I was in high school, I used to go see a local band play just about every weekend. They were super high energy and always got the crowd going. I have since married the bass player (he gives the BEST massages) and listening to their music is perfect for when I'm trying to get through the last few minutes of my run.
