My Experience with the Garmin Forerunner 965: Great Hardware, Strange Software

I’ve had this blog in draft form for a long time, and now I’ve finally found the time to finish it and describe my last two years with smartwatches and fitness trackers and formulate my opinion on it.

Review: Shokz OpenRun – The Perfect Headset for Every Athlete

As someone who’s always looking for the ideal headset for cycling and running, I can honestly say the Shokz OpenRun is the best solution I’ve found so far. Whether I’m out on the road bike, going for a run, or riding indoors on the turbo trainer with Zwift, these bone conduction headphones are my go-to choice every time.

Comfort & Fit

The first thing you notice about the OpenRun is how lightweight it is (just 26 grams) and how comfortable it feels. Thanks to the open-ear design, your ears remain completely free, so you always stay aware of your surroundings—much safer when you’re sharing the road. The headset stays firmly in place, even during sprints or longer workouts. Honestly, after a while you barely notice you’re wearing it.
