As a girl who spends a fair amount of time in the gym, I've been in search of the right pair of headphones for years. I've dealt with long cords getting tangled and headphones that don't stay in place. I thought I had tried them all.

Owning a proper pair of headphones might not seem like a huge deal to some people. However, as a competitive twirler and dancer, I consistently have performances to prepare for, which requires rehearsing to music. It can disrupt training when I'm worrying about my headphones falling out or constantly adjusting them. A couple of months ago, my mom found the Jaybird Run headphones. When she handed them to me, I thanked her, but didn't really think they would be different from anything that I tried. The next day, I took them to the gym and was astounded at the difference good headphones make!

"Run" is the specific type of bluetooth headphone from the Jaybird brand. They were designed specifically for running, but are great for other high-impact workouts and training sessions. Aside from the fact that they are cordless and actually stay in place during a workout, the Jaybird Run headphones have other innovative features. They come in a compact charging case, so whenever you are not using them, they are charging themselves! You only have to plug the charging case into the wall after about 12 hours of use.

So if you listen to them a couple of hours a day, you would only have to plug it into the wall about once a week. There is also a button on each earpiece which has additional functions to pause, play, or skip to the next song. One of my favorite features is the ability to answer calls through my headphones, even if my phone is across the room.

I would absolutely recommend these headphones to anyone that goes to the gym and listens to music during their workout. I'm tossing out my tangled ball of headphone cords and I'm changing my life with the Jaybird Run headphones.
