Top 10 Top 10 Hip Hop Songs for Running, Part 2

1. D4L - Do It Like Me Baby

This has a fun beat and always gives me that little extra boost of energy.

2. DMX - What's My Name?

I love this song for sprinting. I don't know what it is but I can just run fast to this song. I usually play it at the end of a playlist to give me that last minute sprint to my run, give it all I've got before I finish.

4. Eminem - Lose Yourself

This song is one that people are always telling me that love to run to. It's loud, it's strong, and it's all about moving forward.

5. Juelz Santana - There It Go (Whistle Song)

This is another song that I think is fun and has a good beat for running to. I smile when I hear this song, and I believe that smiling while you run is the best way to keep running.

6. Juvenile - Back That Azz Up

This song inspires me to run that "azz" off. Plus, it's exciting beat and funny lyrics keep me having a great time.

7. Kanye West - Jesus Walks

Although I personally don't love this song, I've been told by many people that it's perfect for running. It's positive and Kanye's voice is soothing but envigorating. I prefer "Golddigger" myself, but when you're ready for a new sound from Kanye, you may want to check this song out.

8. Ludacris - Number One Spot

I love this song's "Austin Powers" sound and lyrics. Ludacris is funny too, which helps with the smiling. Of course, I also love envisioning myself in the "Number One Spot" at my next race everytime this song repeats that lyric.

9. Outkast - The Way You Move

I love the way I move when I'm running, so this song keeps me moving. It's better to move than to be stagnant and this song reminds me of that over and over.

10. Twista - Hit The Floor

This is a fun song that has the perfect beat for my running. Give it a try and see if it's perfect for you too.
