Do you have one? What kind?

I seem to go through them like whoa. I like the ones that clip to my bras but they always get so wet from me sweating like a hairy man that they don't last long. I don't want to carry my phone when I run. And I don't want some big clunky music player. What to do?

What do you have?
 
i have the slender regular ipod... a nano i think? it's lasted for a few years so far. i love it!
 
I have a 4GB Sansa Clip by Sandisk. It was $30 a few years ago and I love it. I use it to listen to books on tape while I'm doing laundry and on the rare occasion I walk on our treadmill, I use it then too. It's tiny, light weight and cheap, so if you kill it by sweating on it, you could afford to get a new one. :)
 
I use my iPhone. I used to use a separate iPod touch when I went to the gym before I had the iPhone. But I go on long runs outside and I need to have my phone with me just in case. I do need to look into getting an armband because I'm sick of carrying it.
 
I also use my iPhone, but it's never a problem to take it with me because I discovered SkirtSports. They have awesome skirted workout pants, capris, or running dresses that I love! The skirted pants and capris have a handy dandy pocket for a phone or MP3 player. There's a small gussetted hole in the skirt that allows you to easily plug in your headphones to your player but won't get in your way. I LOVE Them!

I don't run, but I walk and do aerobics, so I wear my skirted leggings to those activities.

I NEVER carry my phone. First, it's too big. Second, I sweat too much. Third, I'd stop to answer texts and emails every 10 minutes. :rofl
 
I use my Galaxy S3 with the pandora app (if I'm in wifi) or just what i downloaded into my phone.
 
I don't really listen to music unless I am in the truck. I have an iPhone. I am going to get an armband holder for the iPhone b/c I AM going to start walking/running as soon as my foot allows!!
 
Yeah, I use my phone too... It's in an armband. I get waayy sweaty too and there's sometimes condensation on the inside of the casing. Maybe I should consider switching to something else but I also use my Nike+ on my phone to track my pace and mileage...
 
I have an iPod (classic so not tiny), but I found that I always had my iPhone with me, so use it instead. And, now I usually listen to books via Audible.com and need something I can DL the app on. And the iPod touch isn't really much smaller than my phone. I do have a super duper waterproof case (LifeProof) so i can tuck it into my tank and just wipe off the sweat. Yuck, I know, LOL.
 
I use the ipod shuffle only because it is smaller and easy to clip anywhere. We all have one. My hubby sweats like a pig and he hasn't had any problem with his yet.
 
the music players got passed on to the kids... now i use the phone with several different music apps - songza is my current fave!
