What are the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 headphones? Shokz make bone conduction headphones which sit over your ear, nestled between your outer ear and the very start of your cheekbones, instead of sitting inside your ear to play your favourite tracks while working out. Even the best running headphones usually have a payoff between sound quality and being able to hear your surroundings so you don't make an ill-timed road crossing into direct traffic.

Each running sock below has been tested by either me, Chas, or Lisa Buckingham. I'm the author of The Runner's Code and Running: Cheaper Than Therapy, and I'm training for my fourth marathon. Lisa tested these socks on daily runs around local parks, runs through the countryside, and wore them to the gym as an extra test of breathability and temperature control. All in all, we wore the socks on repeated runs, from speedy 3k dashes to 20 milers and everything in between.

While I love the ritual of cooking with fire on charcoal barbecues and the unmatchable end results, the speed and ease of a gas barbecue has long made it my go-to for cooking outdoors.
