I'm fairly new to running, but certainly enjoy the encouragment that some upbeat tunes can bring to my runs. I rewarded myself recently with some songs for my ipod, but I'm getting a bit bored. I would love to hear your top 5 songs from your playlist!

Mine are:
Just can't get enough - Black eyed Peas
Sin Wagon - Dixie Chicks
Moves like Jagger - Maroon 5
Boom Boom Pow - Black eyed Peas
Nuthin but a G Thang - Dr Dre featuring Snoop Dog

    I heard that song yesterday for the first time and it was pretty catchy but as a musical person I thought it was one of the most untalented things I've ever heard. Which is a shame because I like Party Rock Anthem.

    Anyways, I listen to a lot of Pink and Katy Perry when I work out. I listen to the upbeat glee songs too. I'm a nerd.

    LOVE that song! It just cracks me up. It's on my running playlist and I always speed up/sing under my breath/change up my stride when I hear it.

    May sound silly, but check out the tunes on Sandra Boynton's "Blue Moo" and "Dog Train" albums. Although they're marketed as children's albums, the talent is multifaceted (ranging from Edye Gorme & Steve Lawrence to Blues Traveller to the Bacon Brothers and BB King); and the tunes are upbeat, funny, and have a lot of variety!

    I love to mix them in with more traditional heavy-beating "cardio rock" type tunes--they always make me smile!
