I've never run with music. It appears to me, to be a pretty dangerous activity in an urban environment. I've had a few near misses 'naked'. Music while running has never really interested me anyway. I'm 55 so maybe that's why...

Music really helps with interval running ( If that's the correct word, I have English as second language), just load up a playlist with fitting tempos and then just follow the rhythm.

I prefer to hear the sounds of nature though, but not all live as rural as I

I wear a set of bone conduction headphones and listen to audiobooks. I can hear the reading, but can also hear the biker whizzing up behind me without announcing himself. They're fantastic.

In some states you could be stalked by a cougar so you want your ears wide open.

I live in Jersey and have a trail I run along the river, and despite the fact I just know there's nothing stalking me, this one section goes through some thick bamboo, and I always just imagine something is there.

In WA state, young inexperienced cougars attack bikers and runners.

Isn't it just at or around bars with cheap beer and indoor smoking that cougar attacks spike?
