I just started jogging and I'm really suprised with how much I actually enjoy it as long as I've got a good playlist! Anyway, I was wondering what everybody else likes to run to. My favorite is "Green Light" by John Legend, it really gets my energy up when I start to get tired.

    Kraftwerk. especially the longer songs like Autobahn, and TransEurope Express. My first running mini-victory was when I realized I could run throughout Trans Europe Express (10:38). It just puts me in a trance- coudl run forever if the song would just keep going.:wink:

    Girl Talk is a fun artist. He mixes stuff from every genre, so once song can sample everything from Journey to Sting to Lil Wayne.

    I have a podcast from podrunner that is really getting me going right now and I like the cardio coach series of interval training.

    When I am in that final stretch and my podcast is over I have really been liking "So What" by Pink and Cold Play, Foo Fighters, Korn, and White Zombie.

    du hast.....that is one I have to add, that would be a great power run!

    bumping so I can come back and check these out.

    I have discovered since trying to find running and exercise songs that the music I own is generally very dirge like.... I need some new songs!
