Good Running Songs???
I've got a 12 mile run this weekend (I'm marathon training) and I am all alone. What do people listen to while they run??

1. On the treadmill
I used to listen to a Navy Seal Cadence tape. I would rather stay off the treadmill and be out on the road.

3. Everybody's everything - Santana
I also seem to run faster listening to Obama'a speech at the DNC.

7. I just downloaded that version of "I fought the law"
I'm going to get really tired if I listen to that while running!

9. A lot of techno is good for aerobic exercise, if you go in for that sort
of thing.

Most stuff by Crystal Method I like.

A lot of Fat Boy Slim also.

14. I like the techno
I like it to skate to and it helps in the kitchen too. And on the dancefloor and the bedroom and in the car. That's about when I like the techno.

10. whatever. make it a good rhythm you can run to.
i would check out steel pulse's "reaching out" extended version..8 plus minutes, third world's 7 plus minutes of "now that we found love." the rhythms and back beats are great for keeping a good steady stride with a smile on your face.

ps: i used to run to them.

12. Try "Highway Star" by Deep Purple
It will definitely get your blood flowing.

What marathon are you running?

I just ran the Cleveland Marathon in May. I plan on running the Baltimore Marathon in October.
