Winner!! Auria Earphone Giveaway!!!

Gather round for I have news...

Today is the day. If you entered into the drawing for the FREE set of Auria earphones you should be feeling a little anxious right now. Your nerves should have you slightly agitated, not wanting the writer of this post to draw this post out seemingly to simply fill space with an ongoing string of useless drivel and utter nonsense only delaying the inevitable conclusion concerning who the winner is. You might be called back in your mind to days of graduations attended in sweltering June heat, where a self important ogre droned on for hours in the sun while your grandmother withered headlong into her walker, small children fainted with bodies strewn about in the green fields and ultimately all attendees either slid off their plastic chair with sleep or preemptively stumbled wearily and made their way home leaving their graduate without a ride to the after party.

Fortunately for you this will not be the case here at 'In Clean Air'. So, without further delay I am so pleased to announce the grand prize winner of the free** Auria earphones is...

Last Chance!! Auria: Performance sports earphones GIVEAWAY!!!

Exceed: Glacier White

The deadline is fast approaching. Enter now. See details at the bottom of post.

One of the major annoyances of running with music is that little tug in your lobe. A tug that makes you wonder how such a seemingly insignificant amount of mass could cause such annoyance as to leave music behind at home. That is until the unveiling of the Exceed earphones from Auria!

The Wear Test
I decided to put these earphones to a true test, not a little jog on a paved road... but out onto the technical trails of the high country with jostle inducing rocks and roots. Covering the twists and turns and aggressive changes in elevation has worn on and irritated my sensitive lobes while running with earbuds in the past.

That problem is ancient history now, gone the way of the boombox, walkman and the discman... now, you have the perfectly comfortable earphone to use with your iPod, MP3 player or smartphone! It is easy to use, it stays in place and allows the user to readily hear ambient sound! Now you can be a courteous and safe sharer of the trails! No more people sneaking up on you and shoving you into the bushes as they pass!

In Place and Comfortable
As soon as I put the Auria Exceed earphones in,  I began jumping up and down in the classic I have water in my ears style of summer time... and nothing budged. So off onto the trail I ventured. Even while running vigorously the earphones stayed in place and were so comfortable that they went unnoticed, it was just me, the trail and some Dylan tunes to keep me company as I moved over the terrain.

Safety and Convenience
The audio quality is excellent, very clear with a great range. Most importantly though- these earphones allow ambient sound to come through from your surroundings! I believe this contributes to the safe use of music while running. The user can hear approaching vehicles,  pedestrians, rabid dogs, or just have a conversation with their running partner without fidgeting with their volume or removing the earphones each time they are asked what their favorite color is.
