Today am appreciating music! I ran without my iPod today. I ran with a friend, and we chatted instead! Or I should say tried to chat....this run was harder then the usual. I'm blaming it on not having my iPod :) So I totally appreciate having music in my ears to tune out my breathing, and keep me movin!!!
Or it could have been the fact that I ran in this weather!!! It was cold, my ears were stinging, and I had a hard time breathing. I powered through it though and our run stats ended up at
Distance: 3.03 mi
Time: 39:05
Avg Pace: 12:53/mi
Avg. Speed: 4.7 mph
Max Speed: 8.7 mph
Time: 39:05
Avg Pace: 12:53/mi

My fave song to run to right now is 'Soul Sister' by Train, it's such a refreshing song. I try to time it right in the middle of my run, helps me to breath and focus.

My favorite work out song right now is Till I collapse by Eminem. Great giveawayyy!
I love to run to Miley Cyrus- Party in the USA :)
Satellite by Dave Matthews. I love it. I missed my iPod today too--maybe we're going to have to have one-ear iPod runs so we can talk when we want and get into rhythm with our music too. Music is SO motivating!!!
I have you linked up on my blog! =)
Oh, to pick a fave song is sooo difficult...I'll go with Fighter by Christina Aguilera...sort of a theme song for me! Oh and I've run without my iPod before and it's been a disaster. I hate listening to my breathing.
Fergalicious baby! "Fergalicious definition make them boys go LOCO"! I'll sing it to you on your next run - no ipod needed :) I like dancing while I run too - it might even give you a BETTER workout!
Bad Romance & Party in the USA top my list at this point. My son knows all the words to PinUSA (eek).

My favorite workout song is Till I collapse by Emienem - its an awesome song for when I feel like I am can't go any longer.
I don't usually run with music, but when I'm having a bad run, Tubthumping by Chumbawumba helps me pick up the pace every time.
I typically don't run with music, but I do love Coldplay's Viva la Vida. I have a lot of guilty pleasure songs, too.
