I Should Probably…

October 9th, 2008

I should probably start running again. I havent ran in well over a week. I stumbled upon the nike store by work yesterday and discovered they had a running group that goes wednesday nights. Maybe i’ll try it out.

Oh yeah…and I thought this quote was inspiring: Distance over time equals greatness.

Oops I Ran 7 Miles…

September 21st, 2008

I ran 7 miles this morning when I was only intending on running a 5k…but I found a cool pond thing to run around and several trails!!! However….I did not know that it was 2+ miles around the huuuuge pond…and then I got lost while trying to find my way home. Oh well! At least I know that I have a bit of distance still in me!!!

Running With The New iPod Touch

September 17th, 2008

I did a short 2.5 mile run last night, trying out the new touch. One of the reasons I decided to get the new touch is that it has the nike+ chip built into it. No more forgetting to plug the stupid transmitter into my  nano (which I have done several times before).

Things I like:

  1. Big screen so I can glance and see how I’m doing
  2. Nike+ sensor is built in
  3. Interface is easy to use while running
  4. It asked me to calibrate after I ran - so I could go run a known distance and then enter it in to match up!

Things I Don’t Like:

  1. The touch is bigger and a bit harder to hold onto vs the nano
  2. …thats pretty much it! :)

Oh yeah…heres the details on my run:
