Songs to run to, part II

So you just gorged yourself on stuffing and mashed potatoes all weekend, and we’re in the season of holiday parties and cookies. To top it off, it’s dark and cold outside, and we are forced to run or walk on the treadmill. Working out this time of year is the WORST. All I want to do is go home after work and curl up on the couch with some carbs, not run on a box for 60 minutes. But, I do it anyways (most days). So what’s my motivation to pump out five miles on the treadmill? Well, my pants fitting. But more importantly, good songs! If I hear fun music that is new to my ipod, I am more likely to crank out more miles and a faster pace. Since my first post on songs to run to was so popular, I’ve been doing my research to bring you part two. So, without further ado, here they are. Enjoy! And happy running.
