I always find that listening to good songs really pumps me up when I'm working out. I can push harder and go longer.

I need to cycle through songs though because after hearing a playlist over and over it loses the effect.

What songs do you listen to? What pumps you up? What should I add to my next playlist?

    You're doing amazing! Sounds like you're on the same path as my hubby. He did c25K, graduated...doing his 3rd this weekend all while striving for the 10K and probably beyond. He's down 72lbs. I'm doing c25K...1/2 way through week 6. Hope to join him soon but need to speed up.

    Anyway, you asked about songs....this one helped my hubby past a block..."Moves like Jagger" - Maroon 5 & Christina Aguilera...dancy 70s ish, discoish vibe...if you haven't heard it.

    If you're into the heavier stuff, check out Holy Grail. Very energetic and old school. Did my workout to to them today.

    I prefer update hip hop! Music I normally don't sit and listen to, I LOVE for workouts. Here are some of my faves (some of them are older songs)

    T.I. - Bring Em Out
    Juelz Santana - There it Go (The Whistle Song)
    Digital Underground - The Humpty Dance
    Lil' Jon - Get Low
    Prince - Black Sweat

    Not sure if that's your taste, but just thought i'd share.
