What are your favourite tracks to run to?

[MDM]

Want to create a new playlist for the iPod....

Hoping to stagger by end of March, walk fast by end April and run by end May!

Need some inspiration. This might be tough after pushing baby number 3 out recently....

I am quite new to running but I like tunes with a good pounding beat. And stuff that makes me laugh!

My current.faves are:
River boat song, ocean colour scene
Born this way, lady Gaga
Breathe, prodigy
Nothing better to lose, leanne rimes
Jump around, house of pain

Cooldown to Highway to hell!

Sorry that should be nothing better to do not lose!

Thanks learning, some good ones there!

china girl david bowie
I fought the law by the clash
from out of nowhere faith no more
the kiss the cure
(can you tell how old I am? )

I've found talking heads quite useful lately, sometimes metallica is good, but it's still bloody torture whatever I listen to

Corn, you're about the same age as me! Loved Faith No More. Had that album on cassette!

I feel like a total hypocrite posting this as I haven't been inside a gym for years, but when I did there were 3 tracks that seemed to have the right 'beat' to get me moving (no idea why):

Kelis - Milkshake
Coldplay - Clocks
Black Eyed Peas? I think? - Hey Mama

Random, but all did the trick!

I swear it is physically impossible to stop running if Chesney is singing The One and Only to you, no matter how much it hurts or even if you have reached your house, you just cannot stop! Eye of the Tiger and Journey: Don't Stop Believing are a bit like that too, although I have never gone past my front door for them

I could post my running track list up here to prove I am not the queen of cheese but I clearly am its over 100 songs so it would be tedious

Ebeneezer good by the shamen is another good one but don't laugh out like it does in the beginning of the song otherwise you get some strange looks!

Rock The Night by Europe.

Watching with interest. My running playlistism needs an overhaul but I'm not sure that eye of the tiger and rock and roll dreams come through won't make it onto the next play list...

I have the eye of the tiger on mine thanks to ds plus some other 'gems.'

100 Miles and Runnin by NWA is the best running track EVEERRRR!!!
Just saying.

I like:
White Lies: Death
Stereophonics: It means nothing (for the final stretch).
The Killers: Mr Brightside

Galaxy Bounce Chemical Brothers
SHould I stay or should I go - The Clash
Lego House - Ed Sheeran
The A team - Ed Sheeran
Clocks - Coldplay
The Fly - U2
Under Pressure - David Bowie
Manic Monday - The Bangles
Whats that coming over the HIll
Ray Of LIght - Madonna
The Lark Ascending - Vaughan WIlliams
Love the Way you lie - Eminem
The Irish Rover - The Pogues
You Got the Love - Candice Statton
Always on My mind - Pet Shop Boys
Waterfall - Stone Roses
Town Called Malice - The Jam
When you were young - The kIllers
Slow - Kylie Minogue

An eclectic mix

And for the record (no pun intended!), here are a few of mine:

Pump It - black eyed peas

Echo Beach - martha and the muffins

Monster - the automatic

Cheers all for the suggestions. Baby flab attack, here I come!

My friend recommended jog.fm which apparently has tracks listed for bpm so you can match the song to your running speed.

Not looked at the website myself yet.

The whole American Idiot albumbby Green Day.

Indie soup runner (on itunes) is good if you want something new.

Here's another of my absolute favourite running tracks

Favourites ATM include:

Kelis - I hate you so much right now
Run DMC - it's like that
Will Young - Jealousy
David Guetta - Titanium
Sugar Babes - Hole in my Head
Flo Rida - Good Feeling
The Saturdays - All Fired Up

Jay z/linkin park - numb/encore
Beyonce - crazy in love
Lady gaga - born this way and telephone
Any happy hardcore/euphoric dance/Westwood

Wow, thanks all. Playlist construction underway. Just hope the pelvic floor holds out !

Rock DJ by Robbie Williams is fab as it has such a strong beat to it. Unfortunately running is not currently an option as I have been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis..Hopefully it will happen one day again if we can get the medication right. Just a little run, ocasionally, maybe.

I'm finding the new Madonna album is proving to be a good running accompaniment, in particular the track 'I'm Addicted' gets me through the last 5 minutes of my run.
