I'm sure you know, he's not talking about about "more and more" of a good thing like running, right? But yeah, great song.
The quintessential running song for me is "The Distance" by Cake. Runner-up is that song by Rage Against The Machine. And the song from that genre I refer to as "pop-punk" (Paramore, Blink 182, etc.).
Hey, anyone ever listened to Marine Corps marching cadences while running? I got the idea as I was watching Full Metal Jacket on the treadmill (which is interesting in itself). It's great, especially if you're in a secluded area where you can chant along without people looking at you funny!
