i'm not all that great at running but i'm really trying to get into it. i hate the treadmill but i don't mind running outside. rained today though so didn't get a chance to use my nike+.

my goal is to do 25 miles a week between the elliptical and running. probably 7-8 miles of actual running and the rest on the elliptical.

i did 5.38 miles in 45 minutes on the elliptical today.

Get the plus system and plug it in and then send Airon your email addy and accept the challenge when it is sent.

not sure if you can send challenges after it has begun though so you may have to wait for the next one to come along but it's worth a shot either way.

um. hopped on the treadmill this morning and discovered that my nike+ is a bit off. i'll calibrate it sometime this weekend. i guess i'll start next monday.

i recommend that anyone who is just running outdoors to find somewhere to calibrate their nike+ to make sure it's accurate.

my wife took both cameras to school today even tho I told her not too

so I am going to go for a run on the treadmill right now but I wont be able to get pictures until she comes back from work (luckily the treadmill displays the stats of the last run until you turn it off).

If you tuck it in your laces it will be a little off. At the end of my 3.09 miles last night I found there ws a difference of .17 miles between the treadmill and the Nike+ system.

Not enough for me to really worry about in the long run.
