Does anyone have a favorite Bluetooth headphone pair for training? I am looking to spend less than $40. Doing the WDW 10k in Jan and figure I should at least start with the couch to 5k program
Yeah, that's what I did for Tink because I wanted to hear my alerts for my run/walk intervals, but I also wanted to hear the outside stuff. I tucked one of them under my sports bra strap.However, if I am running outside alone or in a group and I want to hear someone speaking, I will have to leave one bud out.
I might try these. Great reviews and they cost $100 on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Plantronics-BackBeat-Fit-Bluetooth-Headphones/dp/B00KJLMBQQ
BlueAnt pumps... they are water freaking water tight!! Not bad for a $55 set

Wanted to give an update on these...I did buy them and they are not for me. I've worn them for 4-5 runs and they hurt my ears, even after multiple adjustments. They also disconnected 3-4 times during my 11-miler...each time they disconnected it seemed to be because I had a notification or something come in on my phone. I'm not sure if that is standard for Bluetooth earphones, but whenever I use my phone with our Bluetooth speaker at home it doesn't disconnect...I might try these.

Thank you for telling me that. Makes me more confident that they are not for me! I hope the new ones are better too - and I agree with not having the cord being so nice!!It's not a standard problem for all BT headphones. My Jaybird Bluebuds X never disconnect, even when I get notifications.
I hope the new ones work out for you! I don't think I could ever handle going back to corded headphones while running... I love having the BT ones so much.
