    In reading a bunch of safety articles, many of them say don't run with headphones as it keeps you from noticing what's around you. I cannot run without my music. As a compromise, I've been running with just one headphone in but the other one is driving me nuts, bouncing around, pulling the other ear out. Does anyone know of a single ear headphone that's available?

    I'm thinking from your name you're female...??

    Try tucking the other headphone in your bra..that's what I do.  Or, use a safety pin to pin it on the inside of your shirt.

    If you have some headphones which you don't mind destroying, why not simply cut the other headphone off?

    I've noticed that if I keep my music at a fairly low volume - probably lower than if I used it for other recreation - I can hear vehicles, people, and other random sounds just fine.

    I encourage everyone to do this, one headphone or two, for the greatly reduced chance of hearing loss, as well as for being aware of surroundings.
