Hi everyone, I was debating whether to post this here or in the fitness section. I decided here would get the most responses.
I run about 4 times a week and I usually listen to my ipod when I run. Unfortunately my music collection is mainly
filled with classical music which, for the most part, isn't that great for jogging/running to.
What I was hoping was that you could give me a few suggestions as to what I could add to my play lists. So any songs that a have a decent quick tempo (nothing too slow or way too fast). If you happen to have a collection of songs that you run or work out to that'd be great.
Any help would be appreciated. ^_^

You have to find the beat the will go with your pace. In most cases, techno will kill you, I found Big Band Jazz to be pretty close for a lot of physical stuff. Try Glenn Miller.
