Any runners out there use their AirPods for running? I’m wondering how they’ve held up with all the sweat? Also, any concerns about them dislodging while running or working out?

I may spring for some soon but I run all the time, so want to make sure they’ll be good for that use case.

I'm a runner and have been using mine since I bought them in June. I run twice a day 5 days a week approximately 10-12 miles daily. I disinfect them with an alcohol prep pad after each use. No issues to date. Hopefully others who have logged more time with their AirPods than me will chime in.

Dang. If you’re doing 2 runs a day and that amount of mileage, I’d say that it holds up pretty well. Any trouble with them falling out?

No trouble with falling out or slippage. I swear they're like a runner's dream

Cool. That’s good to know. I may spring for some.

In case they do slip out of your ear, a set of earhoox should take care of it.

I’ve been using them for a while now and in this Florida humidity, there’s no way I can wear my AirPods for any length of time without them starting to slip. However, with the earhoox attached, my AirPods stay in place.

I’ve used my AirPods for walking, jogging, and other workouts. It seemed fine.

Do you know if the AirPods 2 is out yet?

[TripleOne]

Nope!
I think the only new thing is that the new case will be able to charge wirelessly.

From what I’ve heard there are no new AirPods planned, just a wireless charging case that can be purchased separately.

Yep!
Apparently it’ll be available in December according to some rumours.

Just a word of caution, i think my AirPods are great but there’s no way they’d stay in my ears for running. I’ve seen others run with them so not doubting it’s possible for some people, but not for me. I can walk but not run with them. If you do put 3rd party rubber ends on them then they won’t fit the charging case which gets in the way of their convenience which is one of the best features.

True, but items like ear hoox take seconds to put on and take off.

I ordered them after reading your post.

I think you will be glad you did.

They seem a little wonky to put on. I think I like them tho. I’m sure I’ll get used to it.

When I first got them, they were somewhat awkward to put on, but not now.

I'm a walker and a bike rider and I used mine for the first time over the weekend and they stayed in place.

Those Earhoox do look pretty neat though.

Ok y’all .... went to the Apple store today and demoed the AirPods and loved them. Bought a pair on the spot. Will test them on a run tomorrow morning. Hoping they workout.

Congratulations!
I hope you’ll enjoy them as much as I do.

Are earhoox easy to get on and off? Do they get in the way of the sensors? Have they stretched out at all over time?

Yes

Not in my experience and I’ve had mine for a while. The material is very easy to adjust.

I worked out with the AirPods this morning. Did a heavy cardio workout (a lot of jumping and moving around) and they stayed in place. I did notice, however, that the AirPods rattle. Is that normal? I notice them rattling more on the right side. Can get a bit annoying after awhile.
