I have a very elective taste in music...anything from 60's stuff (only a few though)70's (a few more) 80's (most things) 90's (dwindling) and present day (quite a few due to having kids!!) Have quite a few playlists on spotify thanks to a lovely runner on here jancanrun...ones called the Mummycav mix, you should check it out, great for running along to!!

โ€ข in reply toMummycav

I'll look them up on Spotify then, thanks for that.

I love learning about people's tastes in music, yours is very interesting cause it covers so many decades.

I have 3 siblings who are 18, 16 and 14 years older than me so that explains the 60's/70's...my Mum and Dad always had music on, we were a very musical family, I was singing with my sister when I was 6 years old, the first song I ever learned to sing was Edelweiss from The sound of music and now I can't listen to that song without a tear appearing in my eye!!

My family was the same, I even played drums in a band for a while and deejayed, my son does it now.

I remember learning that song in school, it must mean something to you.

I caved and got some (I got the Aftershokz Aeropex) as I can't wear normal "in the ear" earphones. I wasn't going to do it but a lady at my first event let me try hers and I was sold. I have even done phone calls and run in the rain - no problems, they have resisted rain, sweat, music and phone calls so far with no problems. I bought them on amazon and paid over 4 months.

Mine came with earplugs and a way to turn up the bass when you are safe to do so. I have run for over 2.5 hours in them and they held the charge - so hopefully they will see me through a half marathon.

They sound brilliant backintime ...I'm looking forward to my test run..I had some bone conduction headphones and I bought those because in-ear headphones always seemed to be falling out of my right ear...I think it got hit too many times with a football when my brother used to boot the ball at my head when I was little and now the hole is smaller, that's my theory anyway!!! My other ones have broken as I accidently stood on them the other day when I tripped over the dog!!!

I get ear eczema with the rubber or mousse on the inner ear ones and that itches something rotten - another of my annoying allergies/sensitivies - I guess at least this time they made me buy something nice for myself :)

I hope you enjoy yours - give them a good first charge up

๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ Enjoy! I got the minis when Amazon had a bit of a sale on. Havenโ€™t used them much yet, but when I have I have loved them. Feel safer being able to hear whatโ€™s going on around me, especially when running in the woods! I only get pleasure from buying running related things now. Ruined I am!

Oh me too Sadie-runs ...thatโ€™s all I seem to shop for now! What are we like?! Imagine us on a shopping trip with a non-runner? Theyโ€™d be bored senseless!! Itโ€™s much safer being able to hear cars approaching or bears in your case?! Lol xx

I have a pair and they are the only headphones I would consider using whilst out running as I think itโ€™s not safe to close out external sound. In that regard they work well, as you can easily hear traffic, people approaching, etc etc. However, the sound quality isnโ€™t perfect, and the sound can start to break up later in the run when you are hot and sweaty. I find it helps to use a head tie (Roger Federer style) to keep them in contact in the right place.
