When I try and copy/paste from my blog it messes up the formatting, so I will link you to my post about it

It's a GIRL!

Basically anything that gets me up and dancing. Lots of stuff by Black Eyed Peas, Lada Gaga, etc.
And on the cheesy side -
"Eye of the Tiger"
"This is My Now" - Jordin Sparks. I blame Biggest Loser for this, they used to use this when the contestants were running their final marathon or whatever and show them all at the beginning of the season and then running. It always inspires me.

Just want to plug a different idea for you - podcasts! I have recently worked out to This American Life and Allison Rosen is Your New Best Friend, and both keep me engaged and entertained without letting me count songs to determine how long I've been running.
I freely admit that I think podcasts slow me down a touch, but I also tend to be able to run for a longer time without stopping than when I listen to music.
That said, I love Kelly Clarkson's Stronger, Jordan Sparks Love You LIke a Love Song.
You guys are AWESOME!!!
Keep em coming!!!
Do you listen to a different playlist when lifting weights? Or just cardio at the gym?
