I'm trying to fit in the “listening” in my morning runs.

I'd prefer wireless earbuds. But they won't work with the ipod shuffle. Which is why I at some point want to get a fitness watch that can play podcasts and mp3-files.

I was thinking to start a thread on running.

I too enjoy running and I wonder who else here runs? I also sometimes listen to language podcasts while running. There are several benefits:
- Two things at the same time: exercising the body while practicing language
- exercise and running in particular increase the blood flow to the brain and makes you learn better

What equipment do you use? I've got an ipod shuffle with wired earbuds. I bought an used ipod shuffle because it is small and light and I don't want to carry the cell phone.

I will put all the Lingq ministories on the ipod and play them in random order for my runs.


I have one smartwatch, so I put some part of the audiobook or podcast into my watch and then listen to it through my bluetooth airdots. No need to train with your cellphone.
