I found that making my playlist reflecting whatever goal I'm working for helps.... For example, my first half marathon was in Las Vegas, so my playlist had a very Vegas at Night theme (Vegas Girl by Connor Maynard, The Night Out by Martin Solveig, We Run the Night by Havana Brown/Pitbull). When in doubt, Nicki Minaj is always upbeat....

I know this doesn't answer your question, but I had to mention this....I am not a country and western kind of gal. I love rap and salsa music..........but when I work out and do weights I love me some CW music on occasion.....isn't that weird??? The minute i am done working out, it has to go off because I do not like it again....weird!

I like to mix anything  Rick Ross, Eminem, Ace Hood, and some Dr. Dre. and PINK

- eminem: lose yourself, toy soldier, til I collapse, so bad, Cinderella man
- Rick Ross: John Doe, Believe It, You The Boss, So Sophisticated, 911, Hustle Hard remix
- Lil Wayne: Bandz a Make her Dance, Pop That
- Cant Be Touched by Roy Jones jr
- Remember the Name by Fort Minor

Hi Laura!
Get the Pandora app! Its free, a few commercials, 1 commercial every so many songs. You enter the artist name you like and they will play similar genra. You give the songs a thumbs up or down and it will help narrow down your choices! FREE! Did i say that already?

I love my Pitbull!!!! I really get moving then!

I can play it on my phone or nook! I love it!

Check out Jog.fm

 

It has a lot of music and it you can search by pace for running or walking or whatever you are doing.

 

You enter the pace you want it it give you songs that have a beat that matches your pace you entered.

Here is another one...Just throwing it out there.  I would listen to this if it's raining and I'm walking around the house for exercise...
