Lots of people like to listen to music, podcasts, or audiobooks while they're walking, running or biking outside. And that's perfectly fine, as long as you're actively aware of your surroundings.

“Don’t look at your phone to change the song or podcast while you are running. Make a playlist ahead of time to avoid distraction," says sports medicine doctor Justin A. Lee, MD.

Keep your eyes and ears alert for potential hazards on your run, walk or bike ride.
