Running is my favorite form of therapy, and it is what I go to any time I need some 'me time.' There is just something that happens to your body after you've ran a few miles that makes you feel unstoppable and happy. I am always on the look out for motivating music to accompany my long runs, so I thought I would share some of my current favorites. These songs are for when I want to feel like I'm about to start dancing on the treadmill or need a boost of confidence.

Here is my favorite Girl Power Running playlist! (Boys, you can use this sassy playlist too, of course. Gender roles are lame.) Even if the only running you do is running far, far away from cardio of any kind, this should put you in a positive mood and ready to put away those miles or laps.
