A good playlist can determine the speed, length and mood of my run.
Here are my favorite songs to listen to when running or working out, and the ones I’ll be rocking out to this Sunday when I am running the Rock ‘n’ Roll Half Marathon. Enjoy!

Is Anybody Out There? - K’NAAN, Nelly Furtado
Forever - Drake, Lil Wayne, Kayne West, Eminem
Body Work - Morgan Page, Tegan & Sara
Hit Me With Your Best Shot - Pat Benatar
Don’t Stop - Foster the People
Lose Yourself - Eminem
Comeback Kid - Sleigh Bells
Fall Behind Me - The Donnas
Carried Away - Passion Pit
Take Me Out - Franz Ferinand
