  "account": "As someone who frequently participates in organized races, it has become clear that open-ear headphones are an invaluable addition to my running gear. These headphones allow me to hear my surroundings, including traffic, pedestrians, and instructions from marshals and guides during races. I was particularly impressed by the story of a runner who uses open-ear headphones as a guide for blind runners, ensuring that his shouts and whistles are not drowned out by in-ear headphones.\n\nShokz is the leading brand in open-ear headphones, and currently, they are offering a series of back-to-school deals until August 31st. I personally use both the Shokz OpenFit true wireless earbuds and the Shokz OpenRun bone conduction series, and there are discounts available on the budget options from both lines on Amazon. The Shokz OpenRun is now discounted from £129.99 to £94, while the Shokz OpenFit Air, which I consider my budget running headphones pick, has been discounted from £94 to just £64.\n\nWith immersive stereo audio delivered through transducers and up to 8 hours of playtime, these headphones are perfect for runs and commutes alike. The Shokz OpenFit Air has earned a 4.5-star rating from us in our review. Take advantage of this great deal and save £35 on the original Shokz OpenRun, available in slate blue or fetching grey. For those with smaller heads, the Shokz OpenRun Mini is also available at the same price. View the deals below.",
