    Wireless ear buds keep me jamming without getting tangled. :)

    I second the wireless earbuds. as far as clothing, I just wear a cut off t-shirt or no shirt and either sweats or shorts. I work out at home, I'm just trying to stay as comfortable as possible.

    My favorite are pants that stay put! :D My long time faves are starting to slip and slide as I run which is beyond annoying... going to have to start searching for some new faves which I am kinda bummed about (although it’s good that my body is changing enough to warrant it).

    Also NEON hats and shirts! Most of my wardrobe is drab and black based (my workout pants are almost all black) so it’s fun to add the pop of color, but also much safer on evening runs.

    I see SO many fun shirts and tanks - I could go broke, real fast!

    This might be a New Year investment for me - I tuck the cord under my shirt and keep the unused bud tucked under the strap of my sorts bra (so I can still be aware of my surroundings outside), but wireless would be nice!

    I had the same problem in the pants department. I found 90 degree brand leggings at TJMaxx for like $15 and they are the best running pants I own. I went back and bought every pair they had. I think they sell them at Target too but not as cheap.

    I like bright colored sports bras and cute tanks for running and workout out. I found one at A consignment shop last week that said “I run because I love food”. Pretty much 👍

    The prices are really dropping and the reliability is climbing. I've had a couple of connected to each other by a cable pairs for $14 that were useable, but the ear-pod models are down to $35 now with pretty solid performance even from the no-name brands. I like the fact that I can pair them with my phone separately and use them one at a time while the other charges, because I do a lot of my walking along the road and *also* need to stay alert.

    Cute leggings or colourful shorts. Legwarmers. Ya I'm a child of the 80s legwarmers make me very happy

    Wireless ear buds. I just upgraded after my last ones broke and I love them. Swore I wouldn't be caught dead in one in the 80s but just bought my first fanny pack for when I'm lifting weights. I've been wearing leggings and tee shirts that are a size too big for wearing daily.

    My prescription swim goggles and waterproofed iPod. The goggles are just a Speedo generic -500 prescription, but wow. I can read the clock and see if someone is in my lane. That's made a huge difference for me!

    For lifting, any of my shirts that are long enough for me to press something over my head and not flash my aging belly :)

    High rise leggings with pockets, and a size 3X men's wicking gym shirt because its guaranteed to hide all of me including my cleavage, even when I'm doing planks.

    And my wireless ear buds. I adore them. The sport ones are waterproof (read: sweat proof) and don't fall out too easy.
