Not them doctor beat gigantic things, just regular sized ones. I used the iPhone ones from the 5 and they were great, until they broke. Keeps thinking I'm asking Siri a question every 30 seconds or so. The cord on the ones I have now seems to pull then out my ear while running so I reckon wireless ones will be the answer.
Anyone use anything they can recommend for use during running/cycling?

I bought some of these for the Mrs, for use at the gym:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B008NMWBBS/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
She sweats more than Lee Evans in a sauna, so didn't want to buy anything expensive as I figured she'd drown/break/lose them on a regular basis.
Wasn't expecting much for £14, but I have to say, they sound good, are comfortable, battery life is good, bluetooth works fine - pairs easily / connection doesn't drop, and so far, they seem pretty robust.
edit: Mrs uses with a vintage iPhone 4 (not even an S) - no idea how well they work with a 5, should be fine though.

Sounds like the cord is either to short or they just don't sit properly in your ears?
How much are you looking to spend?
Wouldn't bother with wireless personally.
You'll always get better performance from wired headphones at the same cost and you'll have to worry about charging them.
Sennheiser, JVC and Phillips all do in-ears that clip around your ear. I personally prefer this type of headphones for exercise.

I looked a while back for exactly what you're after (in ear buds with no wire) but nothing about really yet.
I guess we haven't got to the point they can make them that small and still power them. The bigger ones that are out there still have a wire between the two bits that go in your ears but guess that's not too bad.
