Running Music Player

JimmyCorkhill

Can anyone recommend some sort of music player for running?
I am not too keen on using the phone because its quite big and I would prefer something smaller & lighter.
My watch has GPS so I can track my distance that way.

Also how would one listen to songs via the music player?
Would spotify work on it and you can DL some songs so it works offline?

Or if its an MP3 player,where is the best place to get songs to put on the media player?

Thanks for any recommendations

otherwise you can go for something like this
these are fine but note that on bluetooth you don't get all the same functionality like fast fwd within a track etc like you would with wired. you can select next, previous track etc

to get songs for the second device you have to source the music files (mp3, flac etc) yourself.

the clip style is v handy for clipping onto shorts / running shirt etc.

Thank you for your reply.

Thinking about it again I would have to reactivate my Spotify account and I dont think I will use it enough to justify the monthly cost of Spotify.

So maybe the second option is the better choice.

The only question is, how or where do you source mp3 songs nowadays for something like this and are they costly?

It has been a long time since I once had an iPod

actually this one claims you can fast fwd etc within bluetooth tracks
