Nike +

My wish came true - in the bottom of my stocking was the Nike + I don't run in Nike's...so after some googling and velcro...I attached the sensor to the top of my shoe under the laces. Did a quick run up to the high school track, calibrated the thing, then ran home. It was very uplifting to hear how I finished when I got home. No more trying to calculate my average mile time! The only down side was that my 3 mile route that I have been doing for years...is actually only 2.9 according to my Nike+

Other things I learned...there is a whole web of people using the Nike + Once you create an account you can create challenges and enter challenges. They even give badges to people that "win!" I haven't joined anything yet...but will definately keep you posted.

That's pretty neat! I got the attachment for the iPod and the Timex iWatch for Christmas. I can't wait to try it out!
