Training for a marathon? This is the playlist for your long runs, and maybe even race day.

By Julia Savacool

Music is a critical motivator for me but I can only listen to Kanye's "Stronger" so many times before it starts getting old. Here are some of my favorite tunes to keep me going the distance.

"U + Ur Hand" - Pink

"Stronger" (A-trak Remix) - Kanye West

"Big in Japan" (Workout Remix) - Tom Waits

"Oh Yeah" - Yello

"Without Me" - Eminem

"Badlands" - Bruce Springsteen

"Superstar" - Lupe Fiasco

"Diamonds from Sierra Leone" - Kanye West

"This Is New York" - Sander Kleinenberg

"Get Ready for This" - Crazy Frog

"Lose Yourself" - Eminem

"No Sleep Till Brooklyn" - Beastie Boys

You are really a woman? You have the Beastie Boys and Eminem in your playlist? Have you ever REALLY listened to the lyrics? At least it wasn't the "I love the way you lie" song.
