.:Running:.
Running is great for overall fitness, plus it's good fun. What I like about it is that it's all you - no vehicles (e.g. bike, car, snowboard). Plus if I enter Adventure races, running is always a key part.
Having said that, you can still involve a lot of technology in it.
I have 2 types of shoes - Nike Structure Triax 11 for road running and LaFuma Active Trial Pro for trail running. I got both sets of shoes from AROSports in Harpenden - the staff their are excellent. For the road shoes, they put me on a treadmill, filmed my feet as I jogged and then got me to try on some shoes based on how I ran.
In my Nike Shoes I have a Nike+ pedometer which links wirelessly to my iPod.
I also have a Polar F6 watch and heart rate monitor.
Wherever you are in the world, you can challenge me to a run via Nike+ :
My Events:
- 9th March 2008: Adidas Silverstone Half Marathon (Silverstone, England)
Update (27th January 2008):
I am currently training for the Adidas Silverstone Half Marathon, which will be my first half marathon (actually I entered one 5 years ago, but didn't do it because the purchase of my house and work got in the way of training).
