I ran instead of XT

Ok, I broke the rules and ran today instead of cross training. Why? Technology made me do it. I got the iPod thingy for my Nano and shoe and had to try it out. It did great EXCEPT as I was running I forgot to zip up my pocket and in the middle of the run my music stopped and I saw my iPod skidding across the street and cars were coming from both directions.

Remembering safety, I darted into the street and grabbed the iPod and forgot about getting run over. It was OK, I was OK and the tunes still played and the only thing that happened was some road rash on the iPod.

Fun. I uploaded it to the Nike+ site and it gave me all the info of my run. It was about 1/10 of a mile off from my GPS watch (yes, I'm a tech-no geek) so I will calibrate it.

I hope all of you are doing well and are staying on pace.

It wouldn't do for you to get hit by a car. Be safe!
