There’s no better way to get in the zone than by popping on your favourite playlist before you start pounding the pavement, but if you find you have to stop every few minutes to find a fallen out earbud or readjust your tangled wires, running may soon become a chore rather than something that brings you joy. When we’re building healthy habits we need to be able to enjoy them if we want to stick with them, so having headphones that can keep up with you will make it easier to make running an activity you look forward to rather than another arduous item on the to-do list. For 10 pairs of headphones that will be able to keep up with you on your run, keep scrolling.
