Perhaps I'm a Runner?

Flash-foward several months again and I've discovered that this whole running thing is an addiction...and I've gotten Greg hooked. Muahahah. :>


Follow my journey as I prepare for the Chicago Marathon and get in tip-top shape. A far cry from my days as a fat kid that took like 25 minutes to run a mile in gym class. If only Mr. Simpson could see me now...

5 Tough Miles

First off, I have a disclaimer. I haven't run in about a week because I've been sooooo sick. Let's just say that what happens when you get a sinus infection and follow it up with a 5 day turn of the flu isn't pretty. I'm still not really able to eat without feeling sick.

Anyway, I got the little iPod+ thing for running, even though I don't have the Nike+ shoes. I'd heard a few stories about people using it without actually owning the shoes. Intriguing.

I started out with it wedged under one of the laces. That worked for about 3 seconds until it flew across the room thanks to it falling on the treadmill. I wedged it in again and had a little more luck. The thing is actually pretty neat, but not so accurate. That could be because of the way I had it wedged, though.

More testing is definitely needed.

Distance: 5 sucky miles.

PS - Greg is a rockstar. I had no idea, but he's been running with an incline this whole time. Wow.
