    Not really specific songs, but I have some of the Steady130 mixes, I believe 150 or 160 bpm.
    Nice music, steady rythm for my footfalls, just put one on and gogogo.

    I tend to put Pandora on my phone while I run. Gwen Stefani channel never ceases to motivate, but here is a great list of workout channels that could also give ideas for your playlists:

    I usually listen to audiobooks or podcasts while I run. Lately I'm listening to The Leviathan Chronicles, an awesome audio drama I highly recommend. Previously I finished listening to Digital Magic by Philippa Ballantine, also an audio drama but not quite on the same scale as Leviathan Chronicles. For podcasts I like The Bugle, Read it and Weep, This American Life, Skeptics Guide to the Universe, and Astronomy Cast.

    I love music, but I'm actually terrible at picking out my own. I've always had artsy friends to do it for me, but I have fewer of those these days and those ones are busy with their own things.

    Still, audiodramas are absolutely fantastic. ;)

    Good to know I'm not the only one that listens to audiobooks while walking/running.
    I'm currently listening to Skulduggery Pleasant book 8.

    Top songs though are:
    "Propane Nightmares" by Pendulum

    Most of the "Invaders Must Die" album by The Prodigy

    "I Love It" by Icono Pop (I can't be that old, I still like modern music)

    "Going Crazy" by Robbie Williams / Dizzie Rascal

    My boyfriend will find this hilarious when he reads this because we are always joking about our age difference, but I love to work out to swing music from the 1920s and 1930s. Lol, what can I say? I was close with my grandmother and great grandmother, and I guess their music tastes rubbed off on me. :)

    Swing music is great to run to. I love it, it makes me so happy and bouncy. But then again, I also swing dance, so that might be why. The classics are good, but I also have a lot of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, they have some good running songs.
