Question o' the Week: What song or songs pump you up for running and exercise?

Susan Weatherford The theme from "Rocky."

Tim Murphy Macklemore's album "The Heist" is great for working out. Tegan and Sara's latest, "Heartthrob" sets a pretty good pace too. When I need something rockier I gotta put on DragonForce, "Through The Fire and Flames."

Kelly Bryan Smith Alicia Keys, "Girl on Fire."

Keith Davis Everything by Midnight Oil or The Clash. I know, I'm stuck in the 1980s.

Darius Williams:

Spinners: "Rubberband Man" (running)

Young Jeezy: "Go Crazy" (upper body)

DMX: "Ruff Ryder's Anthem" (When you're feeling good about yourself)

MOP: "Ante Up" (When fatigue sets in)

Luther Vandross: "Glow of Love" (Because it's a good song)

Trip Burns Daft Punk: "Harder Faster Stronger."

Andrea Smart Chick Thomas Kristin Brenemen said "Vertigogo" by Combustible Edison.

Andrea Smart Chick Thomas Coming from someone who works out all the time (I'm working out right now at my desk): "I Could Be The One" by Avicii, "We Got The World" by Icona Pop, "Just One Last Time" by David Guetta and basically anything EDM.
 Kathy Self Robertson "Say It Ain't So" by Trademark Show.

Michael Kennedy Jamiroquai's "Canned Heat" always gets the heart pumping and makes me run extra sassy.

Amber Helsel "Thrift Shop" by Macklemore and "Radioactive" by Imagine Dragons.

Nikki Thomas Tegan & Sara's "Closer."
