I am searching for a music selection that will put me at a pace for beginning to run 3 miles within 30 minute in intervals (walk jog) with 5 minute warm up/ cool down. I have no idea on how to find such a thing. Any suggestions?

    Check out this podcast - "The Chubby Jones Podcast" by Mia Jones. It's free and I like the music. I hope you like it!:smile:

    Look up Jeff Galloway; he has some interval "albums" you can purchase on iTunes, tells you when to run, when to walk. Has a warm up and cool down.

    I bought the 5K training 3:1 after I had a knee (over use) injury and had to start my running program back, slowly.

    Motion Traxx has a lot of different play lists that you can get.

    I LOVE Rockmyrun.com Its not free, but just by signing up I've gotten quite a few songs for free as they try to increase their number of users. You can search by genre, bpm, etc.

    Thanks everyone for the suggestions! I tried to go thank you for your response, but MFP just limited me and said I cannot contact for than 5 non friends in less than 10 minutes. So now I will have to say a general THANKS for the great list of places to look posted here!

    I listen to a mix of AWOLNation, Three Days Grace, Rise Against and Dave Matthews Band when running. Two Step and You Might Die Trying are good to keep pace with
