Stuff

Wasn't able to get the long run in this week! Too many things to do and not nearly enough hours in a day......



Did the groceries this afternoon, putting them away , preparing dinner , making my oh so yummy pasta sauce .... a nice salad and veggie tray then cutting up a pineapple didn't leave much time to run!



While I was in Wallmart today I picked up a new iPod Shuffle. I have wanted one of these guys ever since I killed my old shuffle during the very wet Niagara Ultra!!!!! So I get it all loaded up and jump on the treadmill for somewhere around 2 hours. The controls are in line with the right ear bud about 5 inches below thew ear. It was obvious that this woudl be a weak spot , didnt look real water proof and I was concerned about sweat . Sure enough 45 into the run , goo seat on and all I can no longer adjust the volume!!!!! What a piece of crap , Apple says these guys are the music player for fitness.... yeah right! Lets just say I am going back to Wallmart tomorrow to get my money back!



So I managed to get in 10.2 K before being too bummed out to carry on.



Should be able to get some good runs in the next couple of weeks. Planning on taking the long runs to Stanley Park. I am going to the Olympics to work. Its cool to be there helping deliver the games to the world but I am also bummed out because I just decked out the home theater with a new HD Projector and PVR!
