I Love Cool Stuff…

Okay, so I picked up another training aid.  It’s the Nike+ SportBand. This thing is cool, unobtrusive, accurate and, uh, cool.  I even set-up a training program and training goals on the NikePlus website.  I think the site allows me to share my stats with you all.  There may even be a Nike+ widget, who knows.  Man, I love cool stuff!  Anyway here is a snippet about the Nike+ SportBand from the nikeplus.com site:

Nike+ SportBand

Discover a new way to run with Nike+. This amazing device allows you to track your distance, pace, time and calories burned during your runs. With a sensor in your Nike+ Ready shoe and Nike+ SportBand on your wrist, you’re ready for a better running experience.

• Connect with nikeplus.com to log runs, track progress, set goals
• Review last run data, weekly run data, and total miles/kilometers
• Includes Nike+ sensor
• Rechargeable battery via direct USB connection
• SUPPORT: nikeplus.com

In the interest of full disclosure, I’ve had this thing for a few weeks.  Tomorrow, I’ll start a 12 week “Walk to Run” training program and have set a beginning goal of 75 miles in 30 days.  Nike+ and P90X…I’ll be fine in no time!

I’ll keep you posted!
