You are a fucking madman. I have to upload runs now, but damn! You will still be in first place. I like that. You keep kicking ass...and maybe we should plan a lunch run? Could be a nice break in the day.

I am in as jpaw61. I posted in the old thread by mistake and was pointed here. I lost about 30lbs and decided to buy myself an iPod Touch and Nike+ as a reward.

i need new earbuds. what are you guys using? i've tried the ones that come with it, the apple in ear ones, some seinheiser sport ones (which sucked), something called "the plug" by koss, and some cheap sony's. looking for something minimal. no over the head or around the ear. just something that fits in my ear and will not fall out when i sweat.

I've been using these jbuds since the start of the winter: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d.ht…
they sound good and I love the no-tangle cord. I would probably opt for the ones that don't have the fancy iPhone mic and controls because when I use them with my iPhone the controls get all dunked up. Especially when I got pandora running. It likes to suddenly switch to my iPod playlist for whatever annoying reasons. Not to mention that the non-compatible Iphone version is ten bucks less I think.
They are good for the price and have already far outlasted the many other pairs I have gone through (Sony, denon, etc) earbuds and sweat don't mix that well together haha

I use the Sony Fontopia ones (old model with no rubber/ movable parts)
Make sure you get the ones with volume control, so you can quickly change volume while running w no need to touch the ipod.
You can get these on eBay, most stores will carry the new Sony ones, which are very different and not as comfortable. You may choose to pay tons more for marketing gimmicks but why spend over $25 on a pair of earbuds, save the money and get some nice headphones instead where you get monitoring quality and proper outside isolation (not for use while running of course).
Hope that helps!

hey lvl_13 ,,,
i finally got round to going to the running shop that has a camera and the analyze your steps etc. looks like i was pronating quite a bit, especially my left foot. but he also said its caused from pushing too hard too soon. now i have to do this horrible increment training. 3 min run, 2 min walk x5 and more each week. kinda sucks but knee is holding out with some new shoes . so hopefully hit next challenge...
