So, I'm planning to run this half marathon in 5wks and i'm a little nervous.
I'm hoping that having my Ipod with some great music will distract me and help me finish the race.
SO...I need suggestions for songs for my Ipod....anything with inspiring words, beat etc. doesn't necessarily have to be a fast up beat song...some of my favorite running songs so far are :
Hook by Blues Travellers
If I were a boy by Beyonce
Paralyzer by Finger Eleven...
so you can see I have no rules when it comes to running music...
So PLEASE give me your suggestions!!!!
thanks:)
Me and My darling Husband
I'm so lucky to be In love
Our Biggest Blessings
Erika Brooke: Our very spirited, fiesty yet adorabley sweet little girl. She is SO full of Spice!! She definitely keeps us on our toes! We could not imagine our family without her. We're so thankful she came to us
Megan Kate: Our absolute Angel. This girl constantly inspires us with her wisdom and sweetness. Always loving, caring and thoughtful. I am constantly amazed by what an incredible person she is. I can't wait to see how she grows and develops as she gets older. It is a lesson in humility to be her mother. We learn so much from her!
What I'm reading
The one and only constant read in my life. I love the Book of Mormon, it helps me keep my "Eternal Perspective" on life and what's REALLY important
Recovering Charles-Great book!

seriously as cheesy as it sounds...Eye of the Tiger...gets me every time.
Hokey Pokey. If you sing it really fast and follow the instructions "put your right foot in" you can run at incredible speeds.
GOOD LUCK!- hmmmm, good songs... I like the smashing pumpkins when I run.
sorry that i'm totally creeping onto your blog. . . (i'm lacey's cousin), but anyways, I absolutely love running to Tim McGraw's "How Bad Do You Want It." Seriously, the lyrics make me go harder and faster. So that's a little suggestion from a stranger. Also, I agree, Eye of the Tiger.
This si probably just me but I used Abba for the Hood to Coast and it worked really well. Just pretend that Dancing Queen is Running Queen!!
How about "How Bizarre" Hahahaha!!
Or should I say" How was I?"
Ahhhh that song cracks me up everytime I hear it!
Traceyxo
I really love "Supermassive Black Hole" by Muse, "More Than Fine" by Switchfoot, "Sugar" by Tonic, "The Hardest Part" by Coldplay, "In a Little While" by U2, and "15 Step" by Radiohead. I could go on and on. I have a huge running playlist on my ipod. Love it!! Anyway, those are some of my favs.
swamp thing by 'the grid'
everyday people 'arrested development'
i like the way you move 'body rockers'
just a few that got my through my marathon!
I was just crusin my selctions for running. Eye of Tiger is always first, then I like "Strangers waiting up and down the boulavard in the night...Streetlignts, people... Hiding somewhere in the night...don't stop believing... don't know the name, but it is a good one and that song Dance from Napolean Dynomite. Good Luck Nicole, you are going to great!
Lately it's been "Beautiful" by Akon because it's like a 5 minute song!

OK so I could give you a lot of songs I used to run to, have not quite got myself into the "place" to start running since having the twins..
This is such a "young" song but hey, we are still plenty young.. but its addictive
Untouched by "The Veronicas"
Jai Ho by A.R Rahman (its from the Slumdog Millionaire soundtrack) highly suggest that movie if you have not seen it.. One of the best I've seen in years! (clean too)
Nothing Special by IllScarlett (radio version)
This is how it feels - "The Veronicas" (radio version because the album version drops a strong cuss word in the middle of the song
Do I Go by Evren
Turnaround by "The Jimmy Swift Band"
Street Sleeper by Grand Theft Bus (one of my songs that I put on my play list for when I started to know I would be tired.. love love this song!)
Go old school and do
Hot Stuff by Donna Summers
This Boy's Fire (Ft. Jennifer Lopez And baby Bash) Santana
If you want more just let me know...
