To my avid #runners out there. Recently, I've started running again and have a half #marathon coming up. When I go for a jog, I have wired ear buds connected to my iPhone 13 Mini.

Just recently, I dropped my phone while running & now the wires are showing some serious wear & tear. Nothing super glue & duct tape couldn't fix temporarily, but it is a cause for concern for long sessions. Doesn't help my wired ear buds are 12yrs+ old.

Any recommendations for wireless options for running?

@Nujtag good luck with your half marathon, but note that many organised races do not permit runners to wear headphones. Check the rules for your race and try some of your training runs without headphones.

@jrr Valid point. This was definitely more for training purposes, but you're absolutely right though. I'll go and train without headphones for a while. I appreciate the reminder. Good looking out.

@Nujtag I’ve tried a bunch of wireless buds hoping to avoid Apple… but I use airpods pro.

They’re quite exceptional in terms of audio/microphone quality.
