I'm doing a 5k this weekend and need some new tunes to help me stay motivated and finish fast! What are some songs that keep you going and super motivated? I usually listen to Radiohead & Death Cab on my contemplative runs/jogs but I seriously need some cheesy Top 40 type songs to keep me on track this time, I think - so I'm thinking more on the Black Eyed Peas, Girls Aloud, Britney, Lady GaGa, Madonna, etc. ... thanks guys! (btw ... I have already checked out all of Fit's P.L.O.W. ... some good ideas there but I could always use more!)

Oh wow, thanks so much for taking the time to write those Rhonda! I'll definitely include a few on my playlist!
