Missing..... 700 hours


The (non-replaceable) battery in the Nike+ is supposed to be good for 1,000 hours. Mine died today after 300 hours.

7 Miles !



Nike+ map showing the 7 miles I ran on the treadmill today - mapped on Broad Street. Summerville and Broad in N. Phila. to Federal Street in S. Phila..... time unknown because the sensor for my Nike+ died !!!

Training....


Time is running out for the Broad Street Run training. Tuesday is March 2, which is two months from RUN DAY !!!

Actually, the runner isn't lost, but apparently her time is......
They can't find my chip time for Saturday's 2010 Frostbite 5 Miler run in Ambler.... So, based on the facts that I didn't have my Nike+, I'm still not 100% sure of the calibrations of the treadmill, my watch was slow, and I'm not sure when I crossed the START line, I think my time was between 61 minutes and 71 minutes. I'm waiting to see if they can find my time, but I doubt it..... it's all digiital, and I can't see how 1 runner's time could get 'lost'.....

Perfect Day for Ice Opera

Giant icicles hanging from the roof after 2'+ snow on Saturday, and at least 8 inches (and still falling) today.



Same icicles - different view.


Up close with the icicles.
