Good running songs
I'm getting kind of sick of my playlist so I'd love to hear what other people like on their running playlists. Typically, I like something upbeat and fast-paced but not too much on the top 40 side.

I don't run per se, but the playlist I use for the bikes and stuff at the gym consists of loud, fast paced rock, mostly older (kill 'em all/ride the lightning/master of puppets) Metallica and Rage Against the Machine. Some other stuff thrown in for a bit of variety, but those 2 bands make up about 70% of my playlist.

so many good ones.

Space Jam - quad city DJs
The Pretender - Foo Fighters
What you Know - T.I.
Work Out - J.Cole
Don't Stay - Linkin Park

Oddly enough I also enjoy running to slow jams but I think I'm in the minority there...

Although I don't run often, I do enjoy exercising to epic high intensity movie soundtracks.

The usual LoTR & Hans Zimmer stuff makes exercising more intense

Glad somebody said this, this particular song makes me pumped up



I also like The Touch by Stan Bush especially when it is played during the most epic battle scene known to man



Gladiator and Transformers FTW!
