    I have a playlist of the same songs that i listen to whilst running and i've got bored of them now and i wanted some suggestions of songs that are motivational and upbeat that are good to run to. I like songs from the rocky film - in particular "No easy way out" and a bit of michael jackson and various others and i like songs that are fast and upbeat or have meaningful lyrics that get you pumped up. So please let me know of any other good songs, thanks.

    Depends on you, any song that when you're sitting in front of the computer and when you hear it you just want to start working out and bustin heads

    Depends on what kind of running you are doing. I've found that on longer runs I like to have a lot of different stuff. I start with slower stuff so I don't burn myself out and then I mix the middle of the run with some up-tempo stuff, then a couple of fast songs and then back it off. I've found that I listen to the same few songs over and over no matter what I put on my player and almost all of it is really positive. Even though I have a lot of harder stuff that is somewhat negative that I listen to regularly, it doesn't inspire me when I'm running.

    Everything with pussycat Dolls.:p
    Seriously.
    music from Rocky movies.
    Elena paparizou (Swedish/greek singer) good music, check out youtube.
    But sometimes it´s best without music. However to do the ordinary training I gotta have music and Rockymusic works superb to that.
    All the best

    Depends on the distance and yourself.
    If your a fast, open runner go for fast drum and bass/ Heavy rock
    If you like to pace yourself go for some slow jams
