Appropriately timed on the eve of the crowing of the next American Idol, the results of a new poll were released asking 3,000 marathon runners their favorite songs to run to.

Now these poll results were cited in an article in the UK, so if the poll was done in the UK as well then this might have impacted the outcome of the results.

But here were the top-10 songs marathoners named as their favorites:
1. Survivor: Eye of the Tiger
2. Queen: Don’t Stop Me Now
3. Spencer Davis Group: Keep on Running
4. Vangelis: Chariots of Fire
5. Kanye West: Stronger
