You have to hear what I did yesterday. I did a 5k for time but set my ipod to 3 miles instead of 5k. I was hurting so bad at the end that as soon as I heard the lady say "congratulations" I shut it off and stopped running. I ran a 23:55 and was stoked to come home and put that time up in our contest as it's a significant drop in time. I realized about halfway home that I needed to run another tenth of a mile to hit the 5k. What a waste!

That sucks.

On the other hand, I registered my first time, and my first 5k in almost 2 months... ingrown toenail be damned. I sucked, although the first 2 miles were alright, the third kicked my ass.

I'm hoping to go again tomorrow and shave at least 2-3 minutes off of my time. I think it'd doable too...

I don't have the nano or the nike+ kit...I do have a garman GPS tracker--would that work or is this only working for those with the nike+ kit?

You're welcome to post your times here and we'll compare them. But the nike+ challenge only lets you record times with the nike+ iPod system.

Did 6 miles on Sunday in 68 mins.

Did 5 miles on Monday in 55 mins.

Did 4 1/3 miles today in 42 mins.

In other words, I am fat.

I need Nike+ but here's my time off the treadmill for 3.11 miles: 29:22. I am a fat ass.

I remember when I was in ROTC and I did the 2 mile test in something like 13min and 30sec or maybe 14 min. I talked to my friend that ran track in high school and told him my time. he said, "what , did you break your leg?"
