Rocky Theme Tune Rocks in at No. 1 for the 3rd Year Running
LONDON, May 28/PRNewswire/ --
- The Rocky Theme Tune has Been Voted the Most Motivational Song to Run
to for the Third Year in Succession, According to a Poll of Marathon Runners
by realbuzz.com
The survey, carried out before this year's London Marathon, asked runners
to name their favourite motivational tune as they trained for the 26.2 mile
event. In the three years of the survey, realbuzz.com (
http://www.realbuzz.com) have seen a consistent line up in the top 10, with
the Spencer Davis Group's 'Keep on Running', once again being held off top
spot by the tigerish staying power of Survivor's rock classic.
Over 5,000 marathon runners took part in the poll by realbuzz.com
(http://www.realbuzz.com).
Queen, The Killers, Vangelis, and Faithless all made it into the Top 10,
alongside a firm favourite of runners - Heather Small and 'Proud'. Two new
entries came in this year's top 10 - The Kings of Leon's 'Sex on Fire' shot
into the No. 3 position, and Lady Gaga's 'Poker Face' came in at No. 10,
showing that there is a good mix of new and old on runners' MP3s.
"The tunes that runners have chosen all demonstrate strong beats and
rhythm, which always helps maintain a good running pace. We always watch out
to see if 'Eye of the Tiger' will be pushed off the No.1 spot, but this year
it firmly remained the number one choice of runners" said realbuzz.com
(http://www.realbuzz.com) CEO and 60 time marathon runner Tim Rogers.
"Keeping fit by running can have a very positive impact on how people
feel about themselves and their lives, so keeping runners on their toes can
have big benefits," he added.
