you through that outdoor<br />

run, ride, or hike, but earbuds<br />

aren’t ideal when you’re also<br />

supposed to be keeping<br />

about the size of a pack of<br />

Tic Tacs—clip on your tank,<br />

battery lasts up to three<br />

hours (just plug it in to a USB<br />

port to recharge).<br />

longer exercising in the<br />

heat, just like the cyclists in<br />
