I recently found another song that helps keep me moving while running "My Body" by Young the Giant. The part that gets me moving is "My body says no, but I won't quit cause I want more" This is so true with my running and playing mind games.

What song or album pushes you?

    American Idiot by Green Day always gets my heart racing. I also love when DotA by Basshunter comes on my iPod when I'm on the elliptical. I can't not go fast when that song is playing. Oh! And several songs from the soundtrack for the movie Burlesque.

    Sooo many. Couple of my favorites:

    Bad-U2 (" I'm wide awaaaake...")
    And She Was-Talking Heads
    I'm on a Roll-Over the Rhine
    Silvery Moon- Big Head Todd and the Monsters, specifically for the line " Free at last, you're on your own..Don't stop now, you're almost home..." My ipod shuffle always seems to hit that song at the right time.

    Not gonna lie, and people are going to think it's totally weird but Defying Gravity from the musical "Wicked" has always ALWAYS kept me going. It's the song I put on when I'm ready to be like 'screw it i'm going home' and once I put it on I've got that extra push.

    Face To Face by Sevendust. That one gets me moving even when I've used my last bits of strength.

    I have 2 that I always play when I'm on the treadmill.

    1. Sub Focus - Tidal Wave
    2. Nero - Doomsday

    It's not the lyrics but the music. They always help to push me harder!! :)

    Jay Z - '99 Problems'

    It's all I can do not to rap along to it while I'm running (and I am a TERRIBLE singer!)

    Not weird at all! It's a really empowering song - made me cry when I heard it while watching the show!

    I don't have 1 Song-I need a variety. I listen to Fit Radio while I'm on the Treadmill or Walking outside. No Commercials-just all Music. It is a Free APP!!! I LOVE IT!!

    Godsmack - Moon Baby (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHdbQwaSY40) ... I play it whenever I know I am going to be doing a long period of intense running. I usually start it up at the 2:40 mark, an awesome guitar riff starts followed by lyrics "Tolerance...Tolerance for pain" that repeats a couple times. Always keeps me fired up
