What do you use to listen to music while running?

Question

I still use a cd player and put it in my pocket or hold it while running. I'm finally thinking about getting an ipod because a cd player is just way too big to carry around while running. What do you guys use while running?

Answer 1

i would get an ipod shuffle because they are cheap and they're easy to clip on without an arm band.

Answer 2

I usually don't listen to music when I run, I like to hear the cars before they hit me.  If I do use music it's an I-Pod with AC/DC and the ramones.

Answer 3

i will use a ipod and get a strap around your arm its smaller

Answer 4

Get an iPod shuffle because they are perfect for running.  They are also really cheap for the amount of songs they hold and they clip right on your pants which saves you the hassle of buying an armband or something like that.

I got one and I love it!

Answer 5

I've used my iPod nano, and that was fine.  I have a running site and recently asked my members if they listen to music while running, and I got a lot of responses.

One question I as was ...

Answer 9

i also used to use a cd player, but it was big and the cd kept skipping while i was running

it got to be quite annoying to say the least. haha

now i use my ipod and i couldn't be happier. :DD

Answer 10

I use an iPod because it doesn't skip as much as a CD player. I would get an armband to hold your iPod  with because it is so much more convenient than carrying it, and reduces the risk of dropping it.
