The first ad they had with a guy looking set for a workout Hense being able to tell by what he was wearing. More ads with fitness will clearly be on their way when it's out. They will market it as one of the main reasons to get it

There is no AirPod ad where a guy looks like he is ready to workout.
Again, you are just assuming this. Don't you think Apple would have featured some workout photos on their AirPod site by now if that's what they attend? Again you are just assuming here.
In fact the AirPods possess no water or sweat resistance. It would be foolish of Apple to suggest this in their marketing.

How many people have seriously had issues with earbuds with sweat over the years? It's going to be no different with this.
I will likely use them 4-5 days a week doing workouts and it won't cause any issues with sweat. Not sure why people would ever think it would
I think you underestimating the importance of sweat resistance in a headphone you use for workouts.
Right, and Apple is merciless when it comes to water damage.
I had to nearly throw a fit to get my iPod replaced in 2011

No way! Did you get them?
I did this past Saturday.
I've gone out hiking with them and a ran segments of the trail. This weekend it will be a full trail run so looking forward to seeing them perform.
