Anything upbeat really, but my all time favorite for now is Gnarls Barkley, Gone baby gone... It's perfect with my pace and when I hear I get so much extra energy!

I'm going to try the special podcasts though, since I really notice I'm getting an extra spark!

The best music to run to, all things considered, are podcasts designed specifically for running. They keep consistant BPM (beats per minute) to get you motivated energized and stay on pace. And best of all it FREE. YOu can find a bunch on iTunes but i swear by MotionTraxx. Cha-cha-cha CHECK IT: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=328231235&s=143441

Wow. Someone else has Robin Trower on the running list. Trower purists would probably cringe but for running I like "I'm out to get you" I added Pink Floyd Fearless recently--the lyrics resonate for running and I love the melody. I also had Great Gig in the Sky. Jeff Beck always gets me going. Recently added some Radiohead Karma Police. Ditto on eclectic. As an older runner, pushing 50, I look at the classics listed and think I would love to turn some of these folks on to more than just the "top 40" of the older stuff they listed. Running to music is also for me double escape from job, children, etc. Also just added Michael Stanley Let's Get the Show on the Road--blast from the Past. I absolutely can't go wrong with Beatles and Stones.

OK, I'm sure someone has posted the obvious, but I'll do it again:

This is my short list

Jackson Brown "running on empty", and "doctor, my eyes"

Alice Cooper "Pain" "No more mr. nice guy"

Bob Seger "Understanding" "Lock & Load"

"We're not gonna take it" by Quiet Riot(?)

"Bat out of hell" by Meat Loaf

Oh really? Small world! Lol. Well if you don't get to do Greenville, but still want to get a medal from SC, there is a really awesome Marathon (and Half) in December at Kiawah Island, SC. Very flat, awesome weather, and it's on a beautiful beach! I wanted to do it but it filled up too fast this year. Alright I'll let ya know, you do the same
