I agree 127%. At the back of the pack of 14, I couldn't always hear exactly what has happening ahead (sometimes it was just static because of the distance), but when I heard the static I knew to pay extra attention because something was happening that I needed to know about (bicycle, oncoming traffic, etc.). I can't imagine going on a run without a radio; it's bad enough when I forget to pack the headset!
