had this exact thought process about a year ago. absolutely despise phone armbands, find them so distracting.

so for when I fancy a few songs while solo training I sling one of these around my waist with my iPhone inside, and use wireless headphones.

was worried it would bounce while I ran, but it's so light honestly barely notice it's there. and I'm off round the hills usually so I having the phone is good, lest I fall and don't get back up.

How about an Apple Watch and Bluetooth headphones?
Can track distance and heart rate as well and very minimal.

air pod(s) with a fin, works fine for me.

Have pretty much tried all the usual suspects in the wireless earbuds segment and in my opinion, the ones by Sony are by far the best sounding by a mile, don't fall out either and have active noise cancelling (which you can turn off for safety whilst out running).

Oh rite cheers
Did t know you could get them for Apple

Went out three times last week, only 4 or 5k each time, trying to build fitness back up before the football season starts again.

I'm also cycling to work and back Monday - Friday (20 mile round trip), will a 5k run each night after the ride be overdoing it?

Oh and why do I prefer miles when cycling and km when running?

Cheers all, went with these in the end http://www.jabra.co.uk/sports-headphones/jabra-elite-sport
had them on Amazon for just over a ton on Prime Day, hopefully they'll do the job.

First thing in the the morning for me, would be dead doing it anytime after 9am.
