    I devote my blog to PJ and running giventorun.blogspot.com. My favorite PJ running songs are:

    undone
    Given to fly
    alone
    Dirty Frank
    In My Tree
    Push Me Pull Me
    Red Mosquito

    I had an INCREDIBLE runner's high during Once, once. I usually get runner's high during Given to Fly, but this was surreal, like out of body experience fantastic. It was great! In my Tree consistently gives runner's highs, too.

    I lift every morning and listen to Alive, E Flow, Animal, State of love and trust, and anytime i run my favorite is Rearviewmirror. I always run as fast as i can during the verse when Ed sings, "i gather speed from you Fucking with me." Brain of J is another good uptempo PJ song for running.

    I have a little more than 300 songs on my workout tunes playlist on my ipod, and about 30 songs are PJ songs. In fact yesterday I started my workout with WMA since I start my routine on a treadmill. I love workin out to Blood, that song gets me all wound up! I just need to stay true to my workouts, been to the gym 10 days in a row, and 16 days total this year so far! Gotta lose weight, and plan to stick to work out regiment, wish me luck.

    Well I row for crew and when it's my turn to choose the music for our erg sessions i always choose pearl jam. I do only live stuff; RITFW, dirty frank, even flow always gets people going, porch, lukin(!), severed hand, red mosquito and others.
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    Rockin in the free world was an awesome experience, i just got into the best rythm. Also Corduroy(Live) given to fly, and DTE. But I like the Live versions form the last tour. They just sound better to me.

    Right Said Fred's "Too Sexy" is what gets me pumped up for a serious workout...

    Wow!! How true is that? Luv that song. I run 3 miles a day to only 3 songs Smashing Pumpkin's United Stated, Trivium's The Crusade, and Nirvana's Breed.
    I listen to PJ for everything else.

    I'm a pretty active runner; just finished my first half-marathon, and I'll be doing a 10K this weekend.

    I have a ton of PJ songs on my running playlist, including:

    Rearviewmirror (far and away the best song for running, imho)
    Given to Fly
    In Hiding
    Life Wasted
    Alive
    Glorified G
    Leash
    Evenflow
    Comatose
    Breakerfall
    Save You
    Down

    I rotate through all the studio albums when I exercise. Favorites right now are Avocado and Vs.

    When I used to run years ago my favorite was Ministry "Land of Rape and Honey" - fast, fast, fast - and Rage.

    gtf and marker are both great for running to, good up tempo stuff with a melody, and of course RVM - thats a treat..

    as for other artists, stuff like Rancid works for me, fast paced short blasts - nothing that goes on too long unless of course its rage......

    I listen to Pearl Jam a lot when I run. I love GTF. Lukin is a great too. Other than PJ I run to Badmotorfinger a lot and The Ramones.
