iPod Running Music

Hi all

Looking for some more music to add to my iPod.

Anyone recommend some running music. Obviously some fast paced stuff but nothing techno. Got some of that already but my legs cannot keep up

What are you guys/gals listening to?

I'll add some of my tunes to this thread later when I get home from work.

Cheers

Gary

Currently I have a mix of Fat Boy Slim & The Prodigy, with a sprinkle of one or two other songs that I find works well for tempo and pace.... I know you said nothing techno, but I would suggest trying them as FBS and Prodigy are far from what I would call Techno.... I will list my "Running" playlist when I get home

I find a bit of R2 Drivetime keeps me going. Some songs to get a bit of a kick on and some speech to bring the tempo down a notch. I used to have a running playlist but technology beat me and I lost it in the mists of my hardrive.

The two which are the right tempo for me are Michael by Franz Ferdinand and Who's Got A Match by Biffy Clyro.

Other songs which get me going are Surfin' USA by the Beachboys, Something Good 08 which has been mentioned, Hold That Sucker Down by QT Quartet, She Sells Sanctuary by The Cult, and strangely enough I Ran by Flock of Seagulls rofl!

I dug some Meatloaf out of the past the other day, I had forgotten how good it was and the tempo is just about right for my pace

Hi all

I think I have a few 'cheese' too

Will try to add my list this evening.

Base813, thanks for your listing. Will have a listen to previews on iTunes over the weekend.

Cheers
