Today Is National Running Day-What Playlist Does Laura Run To? [VIDEOS]

Get your shoes on kids, (adults too!) it's National Running Day! Even if you're not a runner, today is a good of a day as any to get started. National Running Day falls on the first Wednesday in June each year.

I started training for the Garry Bjorklund Half Marathon in March. Running to music is the way I run. I have a runner friend who can't run with it. But for me it's essential.

It's difficult to run without my special running playlist. One of the things I realized through my training is how important some of my songs on my playlist are. It's the beat. It helps my rhythm and pace. It's motivational. If you're looking for a few good songs to run to, here's what I have playing when I run. Oh, and please, don't judge.
