>>83626 Are you looking for something that's just a distraction, or anything with a deeper plot? Baccano--as per >>83627-is amazing, but to get the full effect you need a direct attention span, so watching while jogging may not be the best option.
If you want complex, than the aforementioned Baccano!, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (or the GitS movies), Death Note, FMA (original or Brotherhood, both are good with great dubs), or Monster (little action, but an exceptional story), Last Exile (original or Fam of the Silver Wing), Fractale, or Speed Grapher.
If you want something less "complex", I recommend Trigun, One Piece, Durarara!! (same folks that did Baccano!, but the story is more linear and all over the place), Soul Eater, Black Lagoon, Persona 4 The Animation, Corpse Princess, Samurai Champloo, Full Metal Panic (not Fumoffu), Un-Go, Gunslinger Girl, or Blood+.
For something where the story doesn't matter in the least, go with Naruto (original or Shippupidoop), Aquarion (especially Aquarion, it's just fun), Heat Guy J (very good dub, but little in the way of complexity), Bleach, Fairy Tail, Code Geass (good action scenes, story is hurp durp for the most part), KenIchi: The Mightiest Disciple (very fun, almost no depth), Ghost Hunt (notice the spelling; "Ghost Hunter" sucks), Lupin the 3rd, 009-1, or anything Slayers. I also find Monster Rancher to have held up surprisingly well, though it's exceedingly corny; MAR is the same way.
I also enjoy Vision of Escaflowne and Mushi-Shi, but both are a far slower pace (even with Esca's fight scenes), so probably won't work well with an adrenaline rush. (Escaflowne: The Movie might, it's far more action-packed.) Steins;Gate might involve a bit more attention than you could provide to really catch everything.
Holy shit I've watched a lot of anime. Let me know if my list is a bit overhwhelming, I'll pare it down to "essentials" for you.
