Sportsman's sell proper sports headsets.

There are a few different models.

 

I use a Pioneer set that wraps around the ear. They sweat proof and so far so good.

I posed this question here when my sons wanted to get their mum a set for running. I was pointed in the direction of the adidas/Sennheiser range.

Bose.

I have the pair that sits in your ear. Doesn't move and you forget that you are wearing them.

They have a sports hybrid pair, which come in different colours, I stuck with the normal black/grey ones.

You can't go wrong with Bose, even though they might be pricey.

 

Sport ones

The ones I have <-- they go for about R900 at Dion Wired.

I use Skullcandy, but the bit more expensive ones. Think they were around R450. The sound quality isn't bad (nothing compares to Sennheizer and similar brands), but it's half the price and if you break it and take it to their head office you get 50% off on your next purchase of the same value headphone...

Ya and put the iPod on full volume so that you will not hear the car coming. I will use only one headphone if were you. You need to be aware of what is going on around you and not braindead listening to some rapper swearing about beatches.

Would recommend something from the sennheiser range, if price is not of concern.

 

You also should probably consider if sound quality or usebility and comfort is most important to you before making a decision.

 

I personally wouldn't spend a lot on a set that would be used for training /sports. I have had two sets fail on me in this manner.

I use the Philips earhook headphones.

Got them at Hi Fi Corp.

Cheap, decent sound and will not come out from your ear. Hell, they even worked after ending up in the washing machine.
