    Lately it's been "Kickstart My Heart"..old school Motley Crue. It's fast, it's fun, it's great to walk to or ride a bike.

    I've always found that the dumber the pop music I listen to, the faster/harder/farther I go! The other day, I had a pop mix with everything from Lady Gaga to Justin Timberlake to Ludacris on my iPod and I actually went 1.5 miles farther than I typically do in the same block of time.

    I love the Greatest Hit album by Bon Jovi. And The Eye of the Tiger. To walk upbeat, yet while cooling down, I love Lucky Uke (check them on itunes).

    Honestly, I've been listening to Third Day & Kutless stuff lately... Third Day's "Who I Am" is my biggest motivating tune at the moment! :)

    Victory by P.diddy aka Puff Daddy aka Sean Combs. Notorious B.I.G. also has a couple verses in there as well. It uses the sample of "going the distance" by Bill Conti which was used in the Rocky Movies...It really helps me push.

    Nice taste! Would be my choice as well....followed by "Shoot to Thrill' by AC/DC.

    "MY BODY" - Young the Giant

    My Body tells me no, but I won’t quit
    Cause I want more, cause I want more
