    I tuck it into my bra. Actually, I store my keys and phone in there too when I'm jogging.
    I usually wear 2-3 layers up top (for comfort) so no worries of sweat damage or falling.

    I use my phone since I have music on there and I'm currently doing the C25K program and need to track my time with an app on th ephone and listen to a podcast. I just carry it in my hand for now along with this change purse type deal I keep chapstick and my car key in.

    It was sort of a pain at first but I barely notice it now.

    Someday I'll win the lotto and by myself an HRM and an armband.

    I tried those arms bands, and I feel like they keep sliding down no matter how tightly I put them so i put it in my sports bra right in the middle, and then I'm done I use a handy wipe and clean off the sweat:) Sounds gross, but hey its better than wearing pants with pockets to me!

    I bought an armband holder when I bought my new iPod last fall...it has an adjustable velcro strap...I run outside alot and my running shorts don't have pockets, so I needed something else.

    Try a different arm band holder that adjusts--you can find them at Walmart, Target, Best Buy, etc. They are way better than trying to balance the mp3 player on the treadmill--mine always used to bounce off when I put it in on the tray.

    I have an arm band holder. Maybe you just need a larger band? Mine works for me and my husband so it's pretty spacious. I can't wait to start using the jogging stroller cause I'll just put it in the cup holder. The band is convenient but sometimes gets itchy

    I feel strangely better to know so many other women put their MP3 in their bra - I thought it was only me!!

    If anyone is trying it for the first time make sure you lock the screen - I find overhead press can suddenly blast the volume up otherwise!! LOL

    If I'm doing something I need my hands for, I'll tuck it in my bra, but if I'm jogging I'll just hold it.

    Thanks guys. I have a MUVE music phone by Cricket that I use and it's a little bulky, about the size of an iphone. Fortuantely, with the MUVE phones, you get unlimited music downloads so I have access to tons of music. Unfortunately, part of the deal is that the songs are stuck on the device, so I can't buy a cheap smaller MP3 player and use it instead. I am going to tuck it in my bra for now, while I order a bluetooth headphone set.

    This is the armband that I purchased from Walmart: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Sportline-Universal-Sport-Armband/16537230. It is made of some sort of foam with a elastic and velcro strap. Maybe it works better for people with arms that are in shape, but it feels like a blood pressure cuff on me.

    I used to put mine in my bra, but I get so sweaty I was worried about water damage. I got an armband holder and it works great. You get used to the tightness. The only time it bugs me now is when I'm doing bicep work.

    I use one of these if I'm carrying my phone: http://sprigs.com/banjees/

    My ipod shuffle (2nd gen) I clip to the sleeve of my tshirt. So far that seems to work the best.
