Customer Review: Great for running!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently bought the black Sennheiser MX55 Twist-To-Fit In-Ear Stereo Headphones for $12.99 ($18.57 with standard shipping) from Amazon. I had been debating on buying the bright green Sennheiser MX75 Twist-To-Fit In-Ear Stereo Sport Headphones for $27.48 and the Sennheiser MX55VC Twist-To-Fit In-Ear Stereo Headphones w/ Volume Control for $27.59 but decided on purchasing the MX55's due to price and it's great reviews.
I'm glad I bought the MX55's because they work perfectly and are a reasonable price for an object that I abuse routinely. I use these headphones in conjunction with my Ipod Nano for about 1 hour and 15 minutes to 2 hours during my daily runs. They came with ear bud customizers but I just stick the basic buds in my ear and they don't fall out no matter how hard I whip my head about to check on the traffic around me. Even as sweat falls and pools around all sides of the bud, they don't slip out of my ear and it doesn't seem to impair the sound. The sound quality is fine, especially as I don't keep the volume high so that I can hear emergency vehicles, dogs and neighbor's saying `hi.' The cord is of average length - long - so I wrap it a few times around my armband, which doesn't look like it hurts the headphones or negatively affects the sound quality.
After my run, my ears are slightly sore where the buds have been, but that is to be expected since I use them an hour or more. I am very happy with these headphones. Their price is great and I also received a $5 rebate from Sennheiser, bringing the final cost of the headphones to $13.57 total. This rebate is good for most all of the Sennheiser headphones:

Description of Sennheiser MX 55 Ergonomic Twist-To-Fit Earbuds
The MX55 is the solution to dangling, poor fitting earbuds. It uses the Sennheiser Basswind(TM) system to pump rich, deep bass in a compact footprint while the patented Twist-to-Fit system locks the transducer comfortably in place. The Twist-To-Fit design prevents the earbud from shifting during movement, therefore retaining the ultimate positioning for bass response, audio phase and comfort. The earbuds consist of two earphones (left/right), a carrying pouch, ear adapter set and exchangeable design covers (a la custom cell phone covers) to customize not only the fit, but the appearance-- to the user's taste.Digital Cameras and Photo Categories
