It's a bit embarrassing, but Christina Aguilera's fighter got me through a huge part of the C25K :)

Now I mostly listen to podcasts, phiddipidations is a favorite.

AC/DC, BOC, ELO, Foreigner, Queen, Supertramp - stuff that takes me back to my formative years. Lots of 80's stuff, too. :-)
Training for a half marathon in May '09!

I myself actually listen to mostly 80's metal.  Good stuff to run to and it's what I listened to back in my high school/college cross country days.

I'm not sure I could list to audiobooks while I ran.   I do enjoy the music though,  nothing like running to some good metal to keep ya going!.   I have been making my own podcasts for running

I just finshed week 8 and so far the last few minutes I always crank on some fast paced music, like andrew WK  lol  I always increase the speed the last few mins too it gives me the motivation to finish

1st 2 attempts with C25k I listened to Ullrey podcasts.

With my current 3rd attempt I started by listening to Pandora radio (on iPhone). But then I discovered that I liked listening to podcasts better; they distract me more. I've been listening to
I run on a treadmill so I just tape a piece of paper to the console with the times of when I should run/walk.

I have a playlist on my mp3 player named "workout". It's comprised of 100 or so of my favorite, upbeat songs that I can sing to,  and then I just put it on random. With the shorter intervals I made sure the song was long enough to last through the entire interval. But now that I'm on 5 minute intervals, I can let it cycle through a few songs per run. Time's not much of an issue because I run a track so I know about how far I should go per interval, and I check my watch for more specific time.

Finished week 8 about a month ago.....I will graduate eventually!
