Running songs Get a bigger avatar today!

I'm getting ready to take a physical readiness test. In the past 3 years my performance has declined from outstanding to unsatisfactory. My biggest hurdle(no pun intended) is the run. I have developed some type of pain that occurs when I run fast or longer than 6 miles at a time. What do you guys think would be the best 3 songs to run 1.5 miles in 12 or less minutes?

If you can run 6 miles, you're probably not in such a bad shape.

If you can run 6 miles and not stop in between, you can easily run 1.5 miles in 12 minutes. That requires like light jogging, so you should ace it. What you should listen?.. I always listen the sound my feet make when they punish the ground I'm running on.. get into the rhythm in my mind. Not grooving, but into this .. trance like state. But that's the way I like it so I'm not sure if you're used to it and you shouldn't do it unless you have learned it because it came natural to you. I suggest you take Pointer Sisters - I'm so excited and do funny run and smile a lot and goof around... it'll impress the heck out of anyone, beating the limist and goofing around doing it. If you fail, it was still funny.

I can run 6 miles in about 60 minutes with no real pain in my leg. 6 10 minute miles is not bad.

Instead of running slow miles for an hour consider running 3 8 minute miles instead. After a while get it down to 3 miles in 22 minutes. Then 3 miles in 20 minutes, and you'll be in shape.

Running 10 minute miles does very little to get you in shape (cardiovascular shape)

If it doesn't hurt then you're not improving.

umm..

it all depends on where you are at..

currently 2.3 10 minute miles does alot to get me in cardiovascular shape, seeing as how I am at ~160 for my heart rate during that...

I prefer punk when working out. Some good Ramones, Clash, Dead Kennedys, etc. But then you'd probably need more than three songs...
