I'm going to be adding some music to my ipod soon, so I guess it's a good time to add some workout music if anyone has any suggestions. Just fun, happy, upbeat music to help keep me motivated while I die jogging in the heat.
I use:
Alkaline Trio
Marilyn Manson
Mindless Self Indulgence
She Wants Revenge
The White Stripes
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Yelle
And a mix of upbeat songs from other artists. These are the ones that consistently get me going. I like music with a good beat or that's loud and heavy and pumps me up. If I can mosh to it, I can run to it.
Well... I'm more of a pop/dance person, so I like music I can dance to:
MIKA | Love Today
MIKA | Grace Kelly
MGMT | Kids
Edward Maya | Stereo Love
Alternatively, I listen to more "epic" things when I go running; it makes me feel as if I'm going on some adventure (i.e., the Game of Thrones theme song or FF world map/battle music when I run along the greenbelt).
Girl Talk is fun to listen to while running, if I remember right. I'd jog to that from time to time.
I used to always listen to old Relient K a lot while running, but I just love that band in general. My most enjoyable experiences were while running to their first album though.
I've never had much music at my disposal, especially when I was at the height of going running pretty often. The only other thing I can think of that I possibly ran to was Bleed American by Jimmy Eat World.
Ahaha, I do this as well. I also have the 'rock' version of the Game of Thrones theme tune.
