    The better question may be what are you running from?

    My fat *kitten* ;)

    I'm doing zombie, run 5k training and have purpose built my own playlists based on bpm that is interrupted by the zombie mission. Currently it is mostly dance music first play list ended with Barbie Girl :) and the current one has strategically placed Don't give Up and Fight for your right... I've read you do better to more upbeat tracks even if the bpm is the same and that has driven my choices too.

    For some reason the song Make Damn Sure by Taking Back Sunday makes me run like the world is ending XD

    I use paceDJ set at 165, so I have a lot of Biffy Clyro, Dead Kennedys with Big Country, They Might Be Giants, A-Ha thrown in there.

    I've always been partial to running to heavy metal. I guess it's easy to say that it's pretty motivating :)

    I don't listen to any music, honestly I like looking around, hearing sounds and thoughts in my own head. It is actually really peaceful, I love it!!

    My favorite is FloRida. I also like Maroon 5, Ke$ha, Usher, LMFAO, Macklemore, Ludacris, Black Eyed Peas, Kanye West (I can't stand him but like to run to his music). I need fast paced with mindless lyrics.

    I ran without my earbuds one day and hated it- I can't stand the sound of my own breathing. I thought, "Oh, I'll try listening to the birds singing and cars whizzing by, and think about life, it will be great!" No, it sucked, that run seemed to last forever, and I'll never do it again if I can help it.
