It’s Marathon Week! I have some fun marathon giveaways planned and lots of other running themed posts going up this week! Stay tuned for my Marathon Madness! 🙂
************************************************
I have been on the search for headphones that fit my ear and stay put during my long training runs. I have gone through a few different headphone varieties but nothing has really worked for me. I have been using the ipod headphones for some time now, but they are always popping in and out of my ears, which gets a little frustrating on long training runs.
Enter Yurbuds.
Yurbuds are a attachment to your normal ipod headphones. They wrap around the earphone and ensure a snug and secure fit. When you order a pair of yurbuds, you get the headphones that you see in these pictures too!
They are very soft and comfortable, sweat-proof, provide exceptional sound and won’t fall out. These babies were developed by a marathoner & triathelete to stay a perfect fit during intense workouts – I have had great luck with them!
I have been using the yurbuds during all my runs the past few weeks and I really can’t say enough great things about these earbuds. I will definitely be wearing them in Chicago!
When I was offered a free pair of yurbuds to try out I had to send in a picture of a quarter by my ear to size out my yurbuds perfectly. These babies don’t bounce and the sound that comes out is really great. I don’t even feel them when they are in my ears.
I also enjoy the fun bag they come in! Cute, right?
There are two different types of yurbuds – pink and blue. I picked the pick color because $10 of every purchase is donated to the Susan G. Komen for a cure charity. I think that’s awesome!
The wonderful folks at yurbuds also offered to give a pair of Personalized Performance Enhancement Earphones (a $29.99 value) to one lucky And Her Little Dog Too reader!
Want to win a pair for yourself?

Hey Leslie,
I would love a pair of Yurbuds as I train for my first 10-miler. They look sweet!

I thought I needed new headphones. I actually need a pair of these. So tired of fiddling with the earbuds on the treadmill.
I need new headphones because I have the ipod headphones and I am constantly checking them and pushing them back in because they always feel like they are falling out!!
My earbuds are always falling out! So annoying. PS loved your post of the flooding – I live in Manayunk. It was crazy. I can't believe it's raining again today.
My headphones never stay in either, so obviously I need these.

I would love these and they go with my new ipod. Yes, I finally succumbed to the ipod.
I need some Yurbuds, because every time I lift weights, my earphones fall out of my ears. Yurbuds look like they would stay in place!

My iPod earphones are always falling out of my ears on long runs! Would love to try these.
I also use the ipod earbuds and they fall out constantly. It is SO frustrating!

I was just cursing my headphones yesterday on my run as they kept popping out over and over. I totally need these!
I need these in a big way. I just started running and the only thing that gets me motivated is music. With that said it's hard to get excited about music when my headphones won't stay in my ears.
I'm actually headed to the store today to pick up a new pair of headphones because the ones I have now are awful!
If Yurbuds are as good as you say, I need them in a bad way!!!

I'd love some yurbuds for my first marathon too! I'm running disney in january 🙂

I need a pair of Yurbuds to sport around Edinburgh, Scotland. It is so hilly here that running up and down the streets cause my ipod buds to pop out. Plus- when people ask me where I got them I can say, from this awesome blog andherlittledogtoo!
I have heard about this little rubbery guys, very cool! I love my iPod headphones but my lobes need a little love too.
I need Yurbuds because sweating during runs destroys most earbuds WAY too quickly!
Love those earbuds. I can never find anything that does not hurt my ears! I follow on twitter and facebook and just tweeted the giveaway!
WOW!! These look great! I definitely need to find myself a pair. I have had trouble finding headphones that fit in my small ears for the past 3 years at least, and have been through many pairs!! I have never had luck with my Ipod headphones and I am always putting them back into my ear as they always seem to fall out. Recently I found Nike headphones that work but since I prefer running with my Ipod shuffle instead of Touch I need to also have an adapter that the recent edition requires. But to my misfortune I have replaced that twice already. Anyways, I think these would be wonderful!
I'm running the Philly Marathon in November and wear old school giant headphones because I can't find any others that don't pop out during my runs. Would love to try some yurbuds!
My headphones are over 10 years old so I've been needing new ones for a while now!
And I'm a follower too 🙂
my headphones won't stay in for anything, I so need these!

I posted the giveaway on my blog
Oh my gosh, so excited to read about Yurbuds as I've always sworn I must have odd shaped ears or something. I can never get my earphones to stay in. So hoping these will work. Thanks for the giveaway and sending speedy vibes your way this weekend. Best of luck in Chicago! 🙂
I need yurbuds because the earphones I have now, well only one works:( They are on their last leg.

Wow, those buds look awesome! I just took up running and my ipod buds always fall out of my ears so the yurbuds would be perfect!
I'm glad you found a pair of ear buds that won't fall out for your First Marathon in Chicago. You'll be awesome- don't worry! Your family is going to cheer you on – YEAH!
I need these because my husband is always practicing with his band and I can't hear my music or anything on the computer o these would maybe drown them out better

I have the crappiest pair of earbuds from Target that won't stay put- I'd love to win the Yurbuds to wear on my runs 🙂

I was at a race expo this weekend and yurbuds was there. My mom got a pair and said they were great so I would love to have a pair myself as I am training for my first half-marathon!

I now follow you on Twitter too! 🙂
I need to win these because I stepped on one of mine. >>:-(.
It still works but there's a small crack in the silicone now.

I would love a pair of these because I get so distracted running when the ear buds pop out of my ears. I've tried regular headphones but the covers get sweat soaked. This would be the perfect fix.
I'd use them on my daily commute and not have to steal all of Lauren's pairs 🙂
Perfect timing – I need new headphones badly! For whatever reason, the regular Apple headphones do NOT stay in my ears, no matter what. But of course I have at on of pairs from old and current iPods. I bought a pair of Skull Candy headphones last fall and they were great – but they just broke! So, I'm definitely in the market for some new headphones, as they'd be perfect while training for my second half marathon that's in January!

Sorry my comment posted twice (I promise I wasn't trying to cheat)! But I'm a follower also 🙂
Sorry to be disgusting and TMI, but I have had SUCH issues with ill-fitting ear buds that I ahve gone so far as to LICK them to get them to stick in my ear! hahah! Really. And the worst/best part- I was borrowing my husband's! lol! True story!
I would love a pair of these headphones! I have yet to find a pair that fit in my ears and I had given up hope of finding anything that works! I follow you–this is my first comment though. Love the blog!

I specifically need Yurbuds because of the way my Apple earbuds keep falling off whenever I go running or do MMA. And yes , I've seen a lot of great great great reviews on the yurbuds … the video in which the woman shakes her head furiously.
