Favorite Running/Fast Walking Songs?

My playlist is woefully small. Any song recommendations with a good beat? Usually listen to the Top 40 & Alt Rock genres.

    ...there will be a brief pause while I check out my 'Zombies, Run!' playlist...

    I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) - The Proclaimers (because you gotta :) )
    Conquistador - Thirty Seconds to Mars
    Dance Before the Storm - The Levellers
    Knights of Cydonia - Muse
    Life Burns! - Apocalyptica
    One Great Thing - Big Country
    Road to Nowhere - Talking Heads
    Vagabonds - New Model Army

    It's a bit of an eclectic mix of genres, but hopefully you'll find something there you like.

    It may be a little out of your wheelhouse, but Hatebreed's Perseverance is one of the most encouraging songs ever. It's literally just a guy telling you that you can overcome any obstacles over metal. I've got a running playlist on Spotify called Run Fat Boy Run if you want to look through for ideas.

    I’m not technological enough to know how Spotify works, but I’ll definitely check out Perseverance. Ty!
