I'm looking for new ideas because music helps me with running a lot!
What are your favourites?
* More rock, less electronic/pop, please! :) *

    I prefer running to something with a beat like in Techno, Dubstep, Pop. It gives me a pace to work towards.

    Great songs, everyone, keep them coming! :D

    I know those genres are probably best suited for running, unfortunately they don't encourage me to run as much as they make me want to kill myself. Hate 'em. Sorry :D
