I'm looking for more music - both to run to and to use in Spin. Lately I am loving Flo Rida, Low to run to. On my long easy runs, I like Zach Brown a lot.
What's your favorite song on a pace run and also music on a long run?

  • Here's my current top 5:

    1. OK GO - Here it Goes Again
    2. Kanye West - Stronger
    3. The Ting Tings - That's Not My Name
    4. Mika - Kick A**
    5. Drake - Make Me Proud (not a very fast song, but when he sings "I'm so proud of you" I try to pretend he's singing to me!)

    I pretty much just set my iPod to rotate those songs..I tend to listen to a lot of Rap/Hiphop. That Ok Go song does it for me every time though - crank the speed up and run along with it :)

    I'll have to check that OK Go song out. Never heard of it. Thanks!

    The video for the song is also the best video ever :) I think of it when I'm running on the treadmill!

    Here's my running playlist:
    Soul meets Body-Death cab for cutie (warmup)
    Jessica Kill- Sum 41
    An Honest Mistake- The Bravery
    American Idiot- Green Day
    Collapse(Post-Amerika) Rise Against
    Screaming Bloody Murder-Sum 41
    Give it all-Rise Against (awesome power song)
    Sweetness- Jimmy Eat World
    Intro/Chamber the Cartridge- Rise Against (My power, power song)

    I know we have pretty different taste in music, but this list pumps me up and I forget I'm even running sometimes!!
