Default headphones on a rowing machine

If you wear a heartrate belt round your chest, you can loop the
earphone wire once round it, stops it pulling through causing the
earphones to tug at your ears. This can be a problem if you erg or row
in loose fitting clothing such as a tshirt. Doesn't effect heart rate
monitor pickup. I normally just stick the shuffle in the leg pocket of
joggers while erging, or down the leg of lycra if sculling. The old
Shuffle has an optional waterproof case, which is actually waterproof
as I went for an unplanned swim with it once after snapping one of my
sculls on an obstruction.


You scull while listening to an iPod? To drown out those annoying
warning cries from other scullers that you're about to hit? Please
let me know where you row so I can be sure not to be there!!
