Remember when I resolved during the Thanksgiving season to just eat like a pig until the start of the new year when I restart my running regimen? Well, the time has come to make good on the promise. The beginning of the year brought a lot of rains to the Northern California area, and it has began to clear up only recently. So, today, I took my new pedometer out for a little test run. I only did 2 miles, but I think I went at a pretty good clip. Plus, I checked the accuracy of my pedometer every half a mile (one way down to the end of the street is half a mile--Dolly confirmed this). My stride length is 90cm. I'm all set for tomorrow! Coach Nelson will be less upset with me now.

Pedometer? FM radio? Whaaaa? For a second I thought we were back in the 90s. I confirmed that it it still 2008.
ReplyDeleteNN, it's time to step up to an iPod nano, and some Nike+.
I have my Shuffle! I don't use the FM radio on the pedometer. And, fyi, Coach Nelson says that Nikes are the worst running shoes around. She took me shoe shopping and we got me some really good and comfy Asics. And, I'm very careful never to wear them except for running, which means that they are practically new. :o(
ReplyDeleteOMG, another thing...I put on my fat pants today. They used to be loose on me, but now they actually FIT. Cripes.
"I'm very careful never to wear them"
ReplyDeletemmhmm.

NO! I refuse to do calisthenics and I will drug you at night so that you won't wake up early enough to make me do them!!
ReplyDeleteo/` you're going to reap just what you sow... o/`

Good for you, NN. I wear my Fat Pants on a daily basis.
ReplyDeleteYou actually pay for a coach. You should've ask me. I'll tell you ASIC is the best. I've been wearing ASIC for a while.
ReplyDeleteI have one of those watch / heart rate monitor. Its practically new, if you are interested, I'll send it to you..1/2 price.
