I went through so many different ones, but these ----> http://www.amazon.com/Philips-SHQ3000-28-Earhook-Headphones/dp/B004477D0A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327035049&sr=8-1 are wonderful and I couldn't (scratch that... would really really not enjoy) doing any kind of workout without them!

bose ie2......spent more on the earbuds than on the ipod but I can't shake em loose and in my opinion they rule for workouts.
Got these as a gift for Christmas and they are amazing!! definitely the best earbuds I've had... and they are good for either phone or music on my iphone so love love love them!

These are my absolute favorite. They're skullcandy Ink'd that I usually find at Staples for about $15-20 depending on sales. They usually last me the longest.

These I find at Walmart and are the current brand I've been using for the past year or so. They are iFrogz EarPollution and I believe they're still $10 last time I bought a pair.

The ones I've had the best luck with are the older Sennheiser Sport ones -- haven't tried the new Sennheiser/Adidas ones, but likely will in the future. Right now I'm using a pair of Panasonic sport ones that are OK, but the sound is really poor. I can hear ambient noise, like with the Sennheiser, but I think that's mostly because the sound is so thin. No base...very tinny. The Sennheisers have great sound, but I can hear cars and people around me, which is important. I avoid the buds that go into the ear canal, too, since those tend to block too much external noise.0

Another vote for yurbuds!0

Wow! Thanks everyone for all the suggestions. Looks like I have quite a few to research this weekend!0

I just bought some cheap (like under $10 kind of cheap) over-the-ear headphones at WalMart and they work great. The ones in the link below are very similiar to mine:

I use the Klipsch IMAGE S4i for my iPhone - the sound quality rivals pairs that cost over $400 bucks. When I bought mine they were about $90.0
-
When I run I use the LG HBS700 Headset, it's a Bluetooth headset which also has a microphone to talk with, the earbuds stay in your ears pretty well. And No Wires! They're pretty cool I really like them!0
-
Id been looking for a while but then realised I had 20k worth of frequent flyer points and the points-shop had Sennheiser/Adidas available so I ordered a pair. I'll let you all know how they go.0
-
Another vote here for Yurbuds which I found instore at Target as they don't sell them online via Target. But you can order from Amazon and a few other places.
I was using ones that wrapped my ears but found when I wear a hat and sunglasses, well, that is a lot of stuff around the ear!
The Yurbuds don't fall out at all and also allow surrounding sound in which for me is important, like hearing cars, etc. when I am running.0 -
I use Bose earbuds.. they don't come out at all! around $100.0
-
Get the earbuds that have rubber cups of various sizes. You can change the size so it is snug in your ear. I have found other "running" earphones to be crazy expensive.0
-
I like mine by "Bliss" Like ear buds but with removable hooks to go over the ears0
-
bump! i have this problem allll the time! i just used my ipod earphones for my first half marathon last week and shockingly, only had problems with them falling about 3 or 4 times.0
-
Yep, the kind that wrap around the ear are the way to go! They look kinda nerdy, but who cares?! They stay on!

Wrap around ear buds are a definite must at the gym and for running. You won't regret the purchase!0

I can't seem to keep ear buds in my ears when I'm running, so I now use.... Sport Headphones, Red Speakers plus Black Headband by Halo (Amazon). The work great.....only problem with them is it's like a headband, can get pretty sweaty!0

I had these sennheiser ones, which I loved:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sennheiser-OMX-80-Sport-II/dp/B001EZTIZ8/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1327152786&sr=1-2
but I lost one of the ear pads - it was cheaper to buy a very similar pair from Aldi than to replace the ear pad, and I love them just as much!

I run ALOT and prefer this style:

Im not sure which one come with the ipod, but the best ones that I have found are the one that you can change out, I found them at walmart. They are foamy sqeazable ones, they are cool. The come with two sizes, the small and large.0

I don't mean to be a debbie downer but using earbuds when you do any kind of exercise can damage your hearing (increased blood flow from work outs make your ear drums more sensitive). I personally use headphones that wrap around my ear (it doesn't direct the sound only into your ear canal but lets it diffuse a bit)

something like that0 -
These ones that wrap around thear are fine for me, and pretty cheap too! http://www.amazon.co.uk/Haeb75s-Sports-Clip-Headphones-Adjustable/dp/B003CQE2PS/ref=sr_1_17?ie=UTF8&qid=1327153675&sr=8-170

this is awesome! i'm gonna check out these recommendations..but my problem is also that sweat muffles the sound, especially when the buds keep falling out (like with my ipod ones).0
-
skull candy are my earbud of choice...
I've tried several, I'm hearing impaired and don't wear my hearing aids when I run. For expensive to cheaper. Theses are by far my favorite. They don't hurt to put my hearing aids back in and they clean easily foo.0 -
I saw these while in the apple store apparently you can get custom fitting buds from them for free as well if you send in a picture

Yeah, these thing are awesome!0 -
Another fan of Skullcandy here. I love my ink'd earbuds. Sound quality is good, they're comfy, and they stay put.0
