I ran my first (and only) marathon in 2002 withOUT any music. iPods weren't even invented yet and running 26 miles with my Sport Walkman didn't sound super fun. I still don't know how I did that.
Thank you Steve Jobs for making my running experiences so much more enjoyable. I have an iPod nano. Which I love.
Here are a few songs I listen to when training for half marathons (of which I have run 3, Ogden half marathon being my favorite despite the downpour of rain the entire time--it was amazing).
"All about us" by He is We
"Beat it" by Michael Jackson
"Carry on" by Fun
"Chicken fried" by Zac Brown band
"Crank that" by Soulja Boy
"Easy" by Rascall Flatts
"Feel this moment" by Pitbull
"Gone, gone, gone" by Phillip Phillips
"Home" by Phillip Phillips (how can you not like a kid with that name?)
"I love it" by Icona Pop
"Just give me a reason" by Pink
"Lovely" by Sara Haze
"Mean" by Taylor Swift
"People like us" by Kelly Clarkson
"Remember the name" by Fort minor (clean version--I don't dig f-bombs while I'm running)
"Switch" by Will Smith (you know, the fresh prince of bel air)
"Under pressure" by Queen
"Unwritten" by Natasha Bedingfield
"Yeah!" by Usher
"Some nights" by Fun
"Come thou fount of every blessing" by the Mormon tabernacle choir (don't laugh--it's my come to Jesus song and always makes me run faster).
