If you want to run fast (no touchy, feely stuff here ): UFO - Lights Out UFO - Shoot Shoot Metallica - Whiskey in the Jar

If you really want songs that get theblood pumping I suggest these Nine Inch Nails - Last, Burn Deftones - Headup, Adrenaline Slipknot - Duality Sevendust - Denial

Mostly, I listen to NPR podcasts when I run. Sometimes I listen to med school lectures.

I'm starting to consider borrowing audiobooks on CD from the Library and loading them to my iPod. Backroadrunner listens to books as much as music when she runs. Once I get over 3 hours for my long runs I think something other than music might be kind of refreshing.

I've only been using the iPod on the treadmill lately, but when I do, I'm all about the podcasts. I've considered audiobooks, but that might require a little too much attention. My mind needs to wander during a run...

Yeah, that has been the one thing stopping me. I should do the podcasts, though. I could listen to WGN radio a day late...that would be cool.

I could almost deal with Milt Rosenberg podcasts during a long run. Some of his topics are a little deep and thought provoking...but there is no way i could take a step with Kathy and Judy in my ears.

Awww...I love The Girlfriends! But Steve Cochrane is my fave.

That's exactly what I've done. After a few 4 hour runs, I am sick of every song on my ipod. (2000+). I started doingthe audiobook from the library thing. Never anything terribly deep that requires great concentration. It really makes the time go by much faster.
