    I'm big on music while I run...so if anyone has any killer playlists, feel free to private message me. I'm about to put a new one together, but the one I've been rocking out to over the last couple of weeks is:

    1. Lose Yourself - Eminem
    2. Naveed/Life - Our Lady Peace
    3. Escape Artist - Sage Francis
    4. You - Atmosphere
    5. Gangsta Blues - A.R. Rahman
    6. All These Things That I've Done - The Killers
    7. Glycerine - Freshman Fifteen (this might be hard for you to get a hold of)
    8. You Owe Me An IOU - Hot Hot Heat
    9. Ohio is For Lovers - Hawthorne Heights
    10. Kill - Jimmy Eats World
    11. Kody - Matchbox 20
    12. Use Somebody - Kings of Leon
    13. Why Georgia - John Mayer
    14. Hands Down - Dashboard Confessional
    15. The Zephyr Song - Red Hot Chili Peppers
    16. People Get Ready - The Frames
    17. How to Save a Life - The Fray
    18. Steady as She Goes - The Raconteurs
    19. Starry-Eyed Surprise - Paul Oakenfold 

    I tried to front-load it with songs that pumped me up, and then varied a little between fast-paced and mellow. I called it "See Spot Run," but, y'know, whatever works for you.

    The playlist runs a 1:20:48.

    I've found the only thing I really enjoy running to is trance.

     My first choice is almost always A Voyage Into Trance: Vol. 2 by Dave Kendall and if it's a long run, I'll add A Voyage Into Trance by Paul Oakenfold, whom I notice is in your playlist but I'm not familiar with that track. I'll have to check it out :-)

     I'm pretty sure both these albums are available on eMusic.

    And I love  All These Things That I've Done and How to Save a Life, for that matter, I just couldn't imagine running to it.

    Hey zipcat,

    Thanks for joining and thanks for the suggestions. I have never heard of "Running Up That Hill." I just looked it up and watched the video (typical 80's and maybe one of the funniest unintentionally-humorous music videos I've ever seen).

    I look forward to  your future suggestions.

    "Lose Yourself" - great "starter" pick. I always forget about that song.

    Linkin Park has lots of good workout songs! From Hybrid Theory: Crawling, Papercut, In the End Pushing Me Away, One Step Closer From Meteora: Don't Stay, Somewhere I Belong, Faint, Figure .09, From the Inside From Minutes to Midnight: Given Up, Bleed It Out, What I've Done, No More Sorrow All their songs are short and fast and loud with heavy guitar.Well, maybe not What I've Done, but a lot of the songs are great for getting you up that hill, or pushing you to sprint.

    Surely Bruce Springsteen's 'Born to Run' is a must for any running playlist...

    I just added a new song to my playlist-- not sure if anyone knows, but Kenny Loggins' son Crosby is a new artist who just came out with an album that has some good songs for running.  I particularly like the single "Seriously" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sS1Z0_HYr-s)  The album, "Time to Move," has a lot of great songs on it.  Great new stuff to mix up my playlist!

    i like to run to instrumental songs.

    here are a few

    a busy raga called 'Raga rageshri - drut gat: tintal' by a shivu taralagatti ???

    "Raga Basant Mukhari - Gat in Drut Teental" by a budhaditya mukherjee

    indian folk song called 'Kedar - Drut Teental (Fast 16 Beats)' by a paul livingstone janes addiction 'up the beach' is a good start song

    the 3:30 mark of black flag - process of weeding out

    a primus song called 'hamburger train'

    an instrumental song called 'incubation' by joy division

    'woodpecker from mars' by faith no more and

    an older but interesting techno song called 'schleiffer' by planet b.e.n.

    these songs seem to have a lot going on in them but arent real fast

    additionally...i have done a few runs using beatless ambient music by steve roach.

     

    magnificent void and atmospheric conditions come to mind.

     

    its just a bunch of shifting swishes and throbs with no distinct or constant tempo.

    i usually ran in an isloted street at night- the music was pleasant for night running.

    and helpful for forgetting about running while running.
