What are everyone's favourite running songs? I'm putting together a playlist and my mind has just gone blank!

I like running to kasabian or the fratellis.

Depends on my mood. I have a really cheesy playlist for when I'm struggling...I'm pretty sure anyone local whose seen me running along singing "ohhhhhhh mysterious girl" has had a good laugh Smile

I'm a fan of listening to audiobooks when running, makes things far less boring!

I don't think I could concentrate on audiobooks, that's quite a skill you've got there! haha I think i'd forget what was going on in the story.

I don't think I could concentrate on audiobooks either, I like to listen to quite lively music so it keeps me going anything too slow or relaxing isn't a good motivator for me

On a treadmill, give me something upbeat, something I'd be dancing to if I wasn't running. On the lanes round here, let me hear the cars coming, I'm too young to die! Out on the trails where I'm happiest running, let me hear the song of the birds, and let my mind be busied with where to put my feet whilst I drink in the views Smile.

Like Rob I only listen to muic when on a treadmill (a rare thing these days). Chase and Status or some cheesy happy hardcore work wonders for my pace. If I get carried away and can't keep going for as long as planned there's the added benefit of just stepping off the machine - no worries about struggling home :D Real world running is far superior in my opinion though, I might lose the music but I gain the sights and sounds of nature (and sometimes smells, not always a positive lol)
