Hi, I hope this topic has not already been covered too much, but I am really interested to know what your favorite running songs/playlists are! I am desperately in need of a new playlist, I've been running to the same 30 songs for over a year now! Help! Thanks in advance. :bigsmile:

    It's kind of old school but, I love "Talk Dirty to Me" by Poison. The rhythm is perfect for my stride!

    I listen to Pandora when I work out and today "Don't Stop The Party" by Pitbull came on and I rocked it out! Try that one. Also a favorite of mine is "Blackout"by Breathe Carolina.

    Anything Punk Goes Pop, especially volumes 2 and 5. Lights Out by Breaking Benjamin is definitely my rage song for workouts, though.

    If you go to mixcrate.com Its a website for Dj's that put together mixes you you can select the genre that you like and they will have a bunch of downloadable mixes that are normally 60 mins long. That way you don't have to download a bunch of individual songs.

    I have the most random, eclectic running playlist ever... from Eminem to the Beatles, from P!nk to Queen, from Weird Al Yankovic to Elvis Costello... LOL ... I really just love running to any song that pushes me to keep going just a little further or a little faster!

    Great website for finding the right BPM (beats per minute) .... you plug in your running (walking) speed .... it gives you a list of songs. You can even sort by genre

    If you have a smartphone, get Pandora or Fitradio (or JogFM if you have an iphone). On Pandora, look for their workout station, it is awesome. That is what I run to all the time.

    My #1 fave is "Let the Bodies Hit the Floor" by Drowning Pool - I try to set up my playlist so that this one plays halfway through my last run (I'm doing C25K so I'm still doing run/walk/run/walk). I swear when that song comes on I can not stop running!

    My second fave is "The Pit" by Silver Sun Pickups - I like to start with that one.

    I have an odd mix and they are currently set to how my jogs go.
    Warm up (gets me pumped up to run):

    I am jogging in intervals so it's pretty mixed:

    Cocaine Blues- Johnny Cash
    Before He Cheats - Carrie Underwood
    Hell - Squirrel Nut Zippers
    Right Round -Flo Rida (This one comes on during my most difficult runs, it pushes me)
    Stupid Girls-P!nk
    Bawitdaba - Kid Rock
    Trouble - Pink
    My Sweet One - Phish

    Then I cool down with a little Toes- ZBB
    Gin Soaked Boy- Tom Waits
    My Wild Love- The Doors
