Headphones make it difficult for runners to hear even the most simple race-day instructions. And runners can be as careless as drivers blabbing on cellphones Sensible rules, safety and courtesy are all good and obvious reasons to leave headphones at home during races/ jogs. What is your take on teh issue?

Well I think they should be allowed, they are not like cars that will go out of handle if some emergency comes.
