You have any songs for me? [pretty please]
Please refrain from submitting any songs containing the word "death", "dying" or "horses".

If I wasn't such a fashion dork I would say your weakness is ugly shoes. But I am not going to go there.
I think you should try for 12 hours of Johnny Cash for you mix.
Mooshy - don't be a hater. You know they rock. "Don't bring your guns to town . . . leave your guns at home.." - Sounds like death to me - not doing it.
Fun!!!
I love lists and random facts about people.
GIDDY UP!
love the hot shoes, ms emz!
I find that every time I lay out a playlist to fill the whole length of a run, I tend to repeat just a few at the end and never really get through the whole thing. :)
On repeat at the end of Javelina? Andrew WK 'She is Beautiful'
And I like all the random facts (actually read them!)
IDK? LOL! :)

Looking forward to reading more posts from you.
Here are a couple of songs for ya: "Many Moons" by Janelle Monae, "Bubble Toes" and/or "Banana Pancakes" by Jack Johnson.
Love it! I was suprised by the eyeliner - cool - did it hurt?
I know this is dorky, but I just put some GLEE tunes on the Ipod - fun to sing along
Velma - not one bit. The best investment ever.
Thanks for the recommendations!!
I have glee on my Ipod too. Love them.
Kovas....ahahahaha!

Alicia Keys - Superwoman
Heather Headley - Super Woman!!

Burn. Burn. Burn. The ring of fire. The ring of fire ....
Are you a supermodel? Blue eyes, blond hair, long legs, work in fashion and you have a fantastic body!
Fascinating stuff. And great shoes!
I'm one of those Gleeksters too. Perfect for running.
Christina - you have made my day, it's official. ;)
K fam- heck ya! You KNOW you are. Plus- You actually read my blog - that's extra points for you. ;)
Horse with No Name by America. HA! I am so funny. No really, I'm Awesome by the Dolly Rockets. Is it this weekend?
I should read the other comments before I post. Way to steal my thunder Kovas.
Angie - yes. The same day that you will be rockin' St. George.....I'll be dying in Prescott.
BTW - Kovas steals EVERYONES thunder. He's a thunder stealer.
I'm kinda dorky but here's some songs that help pull me through the miles (well, when I'm running miles)- totally has to have a fast beat for me:
Dynamite: Taio Cruz
In M Head: Jason Derulo
This is who I am: The Pop Heros

Dangerous: Casada
The Adventure: Angels & Airwaves

Hope you can find something in there. I don't think there's any death, horses or puking during a 50-miler in there.
Download "I Walk the Line" by the band Live. It is amazing. You could also do the entire Led Zepplin box set - every song is a classic.
I completely understand this post. No foods or other words I am not familiar with..
Kovas my hair will be pulled back.
Christina is the true thunder stealer. I was just going to say that you are probably a supermodel when not knocking out ultramarathons with your good buddy Mr Ed.
PS thanks for taking the high road. So good to see you dragged your mind out of the gutter. Boni!
emz- i totally read the whole thing!! ;) and forget those silly boys... they really do like you ;) I dont really have any song recommendations... I was gonna say "loser" by 3 doors down... but then i realized 1) you're not gonna lose and 2) it involves death
lol ;)

I love your list :)
Fun list! (Yes, I read them ALL!)
I recently added to my playlist: Dynamite by Taio Cruz and I Hate to Say I Told You So by the Hives. But that's one LONG playlist....have fun with it!
You always have some of the most creative posts! I loved this one!
I'm in the process of making a new playlist too for my marathon and it's a lot of work..ugh!
This post rocked. Seriously.
Great list! Might copy it for my own blog; great idea!
Playlist: hmmm...anything Coldplay works for me. Coldplay is what kept me calm during my last mountain marathon. :)
Wow. Is this floating around out there or did you make it up? Loved some of them! Liked the PB+J response! Songs for running - I always recommend the Dixie Chicks esp. Lubbock or Leave It.
Great post with a lot of information! The playlist is very difficult mainly for a man who enjoyed the progressive of the 70s. Anyway:
1) Shoot to thrill (ACDC)
2) Everdream (Nightwish)
3) Ice Queen (Within Temptation)
4) Tarot Woman (Rainbow)
5) The tide is turning (Roger Waters)
6) Memories (Leonard Cohen)
7) Born to run (Springsteen)
8) Rockaria (Eletric Light Orchestra)
9) After the fire (Daltrey and the Chieftains)
10) More than this (Bryan Ferry)
Nice Goal:)
