I haven't posted anything in awhile, but I was wondering if anyone would be interested in starting a Nike+ Challenge with me to log your runs and all that jazz... I'm not too sure of how it works but I can invite up to 50 people, and i think i can have all kinds of challenges... If anyone wants to join say somethin hehe, cause ive never done one and ide like to...
By the way, you have to have an iPod nano and the little adapter thingys

I would really like atleast 2 people to respond to this, and im not all that hardcore about running, since its cold and i will be inside, so it will be boring haha

KC, running outside is the best!! Especially if you find a scenic route to run. Nothing makes you forget about how tired you are than a beautiful scene :)

When I ran all the time, I would just jog in an area for a few weeks, then find an area I liked then map out the mileage in the car to get my desired distance!

Other times when I ran to work, I'd take different paths every day. Made me think about where I was going some instead of how far it was!

when i was deployed to hawaii, i started doing a lot of running because of how awesome it was running on the road along side the ocean. the hills SUCKED tho. i would feel like i was dying by the time i hit the top of the hill, and then i would nearly tumble down the backside since my legs were like jello. still, it beat running inside on a treadmill.

I have wanted to run more--might be interested. I have an Ipod Nano...what is the adapter thingy? Not really a runner but a wannabe. I keep getting junk emails about their Ipod programs but of course it means a lot of money I don't have I'm sure. (Offers for free Ipod and shoes after you fulfill an obligation to spend money in other ways). Anyway, consider me.

Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.

well , the adapter thing cost like 30$ or so and theres a chip tha goes inside your nike+ ready shoes, and all that stuff, other than that its pretty self explainitory, and ill need an email address to send you the invite because for some reason they dont have open challenges:(
