I look my best blurry!
Prince of Fatness
I leave my iPod home when I run. Haven't fried one yet using that method.
Saran Wrap maybe?
Not at it at all.
I keep mine in a mesh pocket in the back of my running shorts. I sweat pretty bad too, but I find that as long as I aim the ipod away from my body it is okay. For rainy days, I still put it in the pocket, but will put it in a ziploc bag first.
I am considering using Glad Press & Seal. :-/
That's exactly what I do. I Press & Seal it until the earbuds cord is wedged all the way over to the side good and tight, slap a tiny piece of tape around the cord and bag to super-seal it, and it's good to go. (Though I have to add...that's strictly for-sure-rain prep for me. I've never had sweat-damage issues with my MP3...)

Wait. See you doctor? Why??
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

I have the gen 6 Ipod and only use it on the treadmill, but a ziplock bag works fine for me.
Janie, today I quit my job. And then I told my boss to go f*** himself, and then I blackmailed him for almost sixty thousand dollars. Pass the asparagus.
She probably never worked out hard enough to sweat so she couldn't understand the concept.
I used run with an iPod. Back then, I'd put it in two baggies.

I am just irritated that my old phone/ipod didn't require special measures. What a pain! I'm going to try the Press & Seal because a plastic bag would be hard to fit in the little pockets and I want to be able to change songs. I could possibly still use a clip with the P&S. And I might I want to listen to Trent's suggestion from a few months ago "Hey Ya" a dozen times in a row. True. I think the touch pad would still word with P&S.
Potato Head, you're a purist. and I'm addicted to the iPod. I admit it. Grrr... I only use it in one ear so I don't get run over though.
Maybe I do need and endocrinologist. (Just kidding Trent. I'll call you instead. Haha!) I'll let you know how it works out.

Now we know why you're bouncing 3ft in the air at the starting line, too much Metallica

Dear R2E,
In response to your inquiry, I am afraid the necessary preconditions would have been lacking.
Yours, a'ight!

An armband is the only thing that I've found that keeps my iPhone from getting soaked with sweat.
Rule number one of a gunfight, bring a gun. Rule number two of a gunfight, bring friends with guns.
One more thing: I run with an el-cheapo 40-dollar MP3 player (a 4G Philips GoGear). I've got a swanky, tricked-out, expensive iPod...but there's no way I'd subject it to the conditions I deal with during a typical Georgia summer.
