I'm not going through 9 pages but it's probably been mentioned. The best by far is Jackson Browne's Runnin' On Empty.

Good list!
My favorite is Running Up That Hill by Kate Bush.
Mods, please combine this thread with this one
Although not mentioning running at all, The Load Out (Stay) by Jackson Browne evokes the mood, the ennui, and the longing for home caused by living out of a suitcase in Europe for three months in 1978. And chasing your dreams. If you ever wondered, this song comes closest to what it was like.
The Load Out (Stay)
[Verse 1]
Now the seats are all empty
Let the roadies take the stage
Pack it up and tear it down
They're the first to come and the last to leave
Working for that minimum wage
They'll set it up in another town
Tonight the people were so fine
They waited there in line
And when they got up on their feet they made the show
And that was sweet
But I can hear the sound
Of slamming doors and folding chairs
And that's a sound they'll never know
