I know music drives me when I am running, nothing like getting lost in the music I'm listening to when I'm on a run! What are some of everyone's favorites songs to run to?

Upbeat dance tunes for the most part, was rhianna but love pitbull now, my pace really picks up with "back in time" The more bass a song has the better I like it. My runs tend to start timing to the bass beat.

Since early 2011 been listening to when I run 1 of 2 Prince mega mixes. First one is a mega mix of about 100 songs for about 68 minutes. awesome layered mix by a very cool deejay from Holland. I know the beats and certain cues that tell me whee I am in my runs. Great mix.

The other one is 1 song mixed with live takes, studio alternates, instrumentals and that lasts for 61 minutes. Song is called Days of Wild and it's got a wicked thumping bass beat. "These are the days of wild." Seemed to fit what I was going through in 2011 and so far in 2012.

Both kept me going during the most recent runDisney Tower of Terror 10-miler at WDW.

I discovered the song One More by Superchick last year. I love it for a final burst of energy at the end of a tough run. Here are the lyrics:

"One More"
It feels like I have lost this fight
They think that I am staying down
But I'm not giving up tonight
Tonight the wall is coming down
I am stronger than my fears
This is the mountain that I climb
Got 100 steps to go
Tonight I'll make it 99

One more
Go one more
Yeah, yeah
Don't stop now
Go one more
Yeah, yeah
One more

Go one more
Go one more
Yeah, yeah

I have everything to lose
By not getting up to fight
I might get used to giving up
So I am showing up tonight
I am my own enemy
The battle fought within my mind
If I can overcome step one
I can face the 99

One Little Spark the original the best warm up or wake up music, gets my blood moving. I have loved Aerosmith since the 70s ( first saw them in 78) When I get home they're even better because I always have a good memory of rockin roller coaster!

When I did listen to music when I ran, I would listen to musical scores or classical (I love Hans Zimmer, Thomas Newman). I tried listening to bands or artist and it turned into noise pollution after 45 minutes or so. No matter who the artist. After I got dependent on listening to musical scores and got to an event and my shuffle wasnt working, I went sans music from then on.

I can't run with music, I've tried but I much prefer the sound of the birds and the music in my head. lol
