Phone whilst running

I've no doubt this has been done to death but I have all my music on my phone (Samsung S6 Edge) and I listen to my music through my phone whilst running. I was struggling to find anything that my phone fitted comfortably in. I didn't like the idea of a wrist band as I know it would irritate me with the headphone wire dangling down but found this today and it's just the job. I don't want to spend too much money on anything at this stage in case I don't see the Couch to 5K through and this was just £8. Fits my phone and my key and isn't uncomfortable. Thought I'd pass it on in case it helps anyone else... sportsdirect.com/karrimor-x...

I was in the same situation as well! Phones are so big now they tend to slide down my arm in a band. I got a cheap 'fitbelt' on amazon. At the time it was about £6 on amazon warehouse but sells at about a tenner. I've not looked back since, it doesn't move at all and my phone is secure so I can have my music on 🙂
