Morning Sutsha πŸ‘‹

Great post over on the 10k board (where I just lurk sometimes, reading up on all you school seniors πŸ˜‰)

Huge congrats on 9k, that's a HUGE achievement, especially as you did it in your (dancing) stride too and didn't even need to push yourself.

I can just visualise you running along punching the air, rather like the Rocky character πŸ˜†

Yes, the teeny tiny buds have arrived!! Due to having to get the house and garden straight for friends coming over last night I didn't get a chance to run so wore them for some hours during my housework and gardening chores and they were incredible, so clear and not even aware of wearing them. Plus paired rally easily with my Samsung galaxy 8, as you said they would. (Have to say, listening to an audio book whilst doing dull tasks makes them far more tolerable).

I'd intended to get out today with them but it's chucking it down so I may have to resort to the treadmill with them (which will be an anticlimax after road running and I can't measure my distance accurately). However, they will be tested on a run today come what may (especially as I may have eaten just a little toooooo much last night 😁😜🐷)

I'll report back further! Thanks again for the excellent recommendation ☺️

Fabulous, so glad you like them! I couldn't get mine to connect once, just popped them back in the box and then out again - still amazes me how easily they connect. It's like magic πŸ’«

I didn't read the instructions to begin with, but have in to learn how to skip/replay a track (press right side twice/three times respectively), again simple once I knew how.

Love, love, love them!!! 😘

Yes, like you I was too excited to begin with to look at anything vaguely sensible like instructions. I even put them on charge immediately only to realise after a couple of hours that the small film of plastic was still over the connector pins πŸ˜†πŸ™„

They seem excellent and I'm so impressed they still in when running!

Thanks for those tips, I'll gen up further today πŸ€“

It's true, it can make a big difference. Ken Bruce helped me out a few days back by playing Boz Scaggs' Lido Shuffle πŸƒπŸ»β€β™‚οΈπŸŽΌ

🀣🀣 love it! Oh yes, I have been known to "put my hands up" for Detroit and otherwise as well as put a sprint on for Becky Hill! All part of the fun!! πŸ˜πŸ‘
