You should learn to be patient...wait for 1-2 days for someone to respond, you've only posted for 2 hours and expect someone to respond?
 
Anyway, I won't use IE80 for sport as it is vented, so there is a risk sweat will get into the IEM, get something like Shure S215 or even something like Meelec S6 which are specifically built for sport

They don't isolate as well as some others because of the vent, but by the same token, the port eliminates any sensation of pressure in your ears and avoids having your footfalls pound in your head. Lesser isolation also helps avoid getting clipped if you are running in the road.

I actually enjoyed running with my IE8's but felt like I was getting too much sweat on them. After trying numerous options, Koss ksc75s are my exercise headphones of choice.

The cable is quite durable, but if need be, you can obtain a plug and play replacement cable directly from Sennheiser.
