    I’ve been looking for earbuds that will STAY IN while I run…that would be my most-desired feature of these earbuds!

  • Ready2Run

    I’m so excited about this contest! I’ve been wanting to buy a pair of Yurbuds after your initial review on the Ironman Inspire yurbuds, but I have to tell you – the feature I love most about THESE babies is the fact that they have a built in microphone so I can talk on the phone while running (which I do only on occasion)! Right now it’s a pain in the butt to talk on the phone…I have to answer it while it’s strapped on with my armband, and I’m literally running down the street and shouting into my arm! My neighbors probably think I’m a crazy lady!

  • Bernadette Cooper

    I’d love to find out how comfortable they are! I’ve never had a pair that didn’t slip when things started getting sweaty.

    The current headphones I am using slip out while I am running, and since I run with my phone, ipod, and puppy, it is almost impossible to get them back in without stopping, which messes with my run. I want head phones that stay in but are comfortable too!

    After reading your post abou the Yurbuds, I knew I wanted to try them because of the way they lock in your ear.  My sport headphones stay put “okay”, but they hook behind my ear and if I wear sunglasses, they can get knocked out.  So I hope I can win these and try them out!

    Hey Jennifer! I wrote to you awhile back telling you about my own Weight Watchers weight loss journey – I lost 100lbs. in 2010 and have managed to keep it off for two years! Your story is similar to mine, and such an inspiration to me. I’m already subscribed to your emails and really appreciate your honesty, positive attitude and perseverence in this journey of weight loss…and life! I am gearing up to start training for my first triathlon in August. I’d be so blessed to have the yurbuds to train with! I’m most looking forward to the fact that they don’t fall out of your ears – I’m so tired of my iPod earbuds doing that. You are an amazing person and I just know that God is going to bless you richly for all your efforts. Keep up the great work!

    That they are actually comfortable and won’t fall out sounds wnderful.  I’ve never found a pair that will.

    I would love a new pair of Yurbuds.  Like you I discovered them and have been using them for probably 6 months.  Till one of the buds fell off and now I’m just not the same…:(  I love the fact that they stay in your ears and are very comfortable, but the thing I like the most is the way you can still hear your surrounding even with them in your ears…that is a big plus and I think it adds to the safety of my runs.

    If i were to win those headphoness, i would be so happy because i can finally do any work out and any lift without worrying about my headphones falling out. And the way they push all the sound into your ears will definitely keep me focused. All this to get me in shape because it really sux to be fat.

    I know this comment doesn’t help me win anything, I just wanted to let you know…..Thank you. You are an inspiration…you really are. Last year I got motivated to lose weight because my husband and I were having problems getting pregnant. After researching and finding out that my weight could be a problem, I got on the bandwagon to eat good, start exercising and lost 40 lbs in two months! Not long after that, we got pregnant, and had a baby! But after she was born, all my weight plus some came back. I’m  having a harder time this time getting motivated to lose weight. I don’t have money for things like weight watchers, or the gym, so I’m trying to do this on my own, which is hard since I was diagnosed with a food addiction. I crave food like some people crave drugs. But reading your blog, and seeing you running in that half marathon, and losing the weight you have, I’m getting more and more motivated. It’s hard, since like I said I don’t have a lot of money to partake in “getting help”. So I hope that one day I can have an inspirational story like yours to help someone else get to where they need to be. I’m tired of always being the “before” picture.

    These Earbuds look AMAZING!!! I have the worst troubl with the average earbud staying in my ears.  It seems my ears are shaped a little funny so none of them stay in.  The twist lock funtion looks like just the thing I need.  In the past I have bought and tried so many different styles that end up falling out of my ears after I have just spend the money to buy then.  I have wasted a lot of money on earbuds.  I would love to give these a try though.

  • Vanessa Madera

    I think that the earpiece itself is the most alluring to me. No readjusting over and over, Im in!

    I just started my half-marathon training, and my current buds are driving me nuts – every so many minutes I have to shove them back in my ears.  So I’m looking forward to a pair of earbuds that lets me concentrate on my running and not worry about losing an earbud! :-) (Also, I’ve been subscribed to your blog for some time now, but I re-subscribed!)

    I would love to win Yurbuds Inspire Pros, Between working out, while working, cruising down the road on my motorcycle or on my bicycle or flying down the mountain on my mountain bike I would love to be able to listen to music in both ears.  Starting out with music then anywhere between 30second to 5 minutes into an activity at least one bud falls out and then its not the same.    I love the fact that everyone keeps telling me I need Yurbuds so they WONT fall out of your ears.

  • Estela Castillo

    Hi Jennifer!

    I just ran my second half marathon & I can’t run long distances without listening to music.  Unfortunately, the earbuds I have are not the best for running.  I sweat a lot and my earbuds are always slipping out of my ears.  I hope to win your Yurbuds  :)   I’m subscribing to your posts via email too.

  • Kpurdon

    I would love to win these earbuds b/c mine hurt my ears! :-( I’m really excited about the possibility of painless music listening.

     I play soccer, tennis, do taekwondo, and want to start running, but I find that when i can hear people around me i just can’t run. For whatever reason, i get really self conscious and kind of retreat. The earphones I have now always fall out and i end up having to go back every time i try to run :( I’d want to have them just so they’d quit falling out and i’d be able to run finally!

    I just finished my first 1/2 marathon this past Saturday! (Brooklyn 1/2.) It was 2.5 months of training and over 240 miles run and 3 apple headphones! Haha I had 3 old ones, so I went through them.

    I joined the NYRR (running club here in nyc) and cannot wait for the possibility of getting headphones that STAY in my ear!

    Thanks for putting this together and good luck all!Best,Pete

    I would love to win a pair of yurbuds! I have bought so many other kinds that really hurt my ears, fall out, or never sit right and are so distracting to my run. Plus, I like wearing sunglasses when I do my races, and I can’t comfortably with the ones that I currently wear.Since I have decided to do a triathlon, great yurbuds would be awesome! :)
