I don't know, bud. Those screenless iPods are pretty cool. I love being able to see all of the circuitry.

But you're at the mercy of the shuffle, and you have to wait a few seconds until you can identify the song before you know if you want to skip it. That seems like a nuisance for someone who is jogging.

I didn't have skipping issues with my walkman, but I wasn't running with it either.

you cant be at its mercy if you take a moment to make the sorting order to your liking or divide everything into small playlists before you go out

I have treatment resistant IT band syndrome from long distance running.

I don't know what that is, but it sounds contagious. Will you cough in my general direction?

Yes! Today I only went 5 miles (8.05 km). Perhaps I will do 10 miles (16.1 km) tomorrow.
Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS) is one of the most common overuse injuries among runners. It occurs when the iliotibial band, the ligament that runs down the outside of the thigh from the hip to the shin, is tight or inflamed. The IT band attaches to the knee and helps stabilize and move the joint. When the IT band isn't working properly, movement of the knee (and, therefore, running) becomes painful. IT band pain can be severe enough to completely sideline a runner for weeks, or even longer.
Symptoms of ITBS
Because the most notable symptom is typically swelling and pain on the outside of the knee, many runners mistakenly think they have a knee injury. The best way to tell if you have ITBS is to bend your knee at a 45-degree angle. If you have an IT band problem, you'll feel pain on the outside of the knee.
Additionally, sometimes an MRI can confirm whether your injury can be diagnosed as ITBS. An X-ray will usually produce negative results, but an MRI can show a partial thickening of the band, which results from inflammation.
Common causes of ITBS
ITB syndrome can result from any activity that causes the leg to turn inward repeatedly. This can include wearing worn-out shoes, running downhill or on banked surfaces, running too many track workouts in the same direction, or simply running too many miles. Unlike many overuse injuries, however, IT band pain afflicts seasoned runners almost as much as beginners. When the iliotibial band comes near the knee, it becomes narrow, and rubbing can occur between the band and the bone. This causes inflammation. Iliotibial Band Syndrome is more common in women, possibly because some women's hips tilt in a way that causes their knees to turn in.
