80 Miles in October!

October 31, 2008 by wroolie 5 Comments

This month, I have run 79.8 miles. This is alot for me. Last time I ran this much in a month, I was 22.

In the past few years, I average about 20 miles a month.

I set a goal at the beginning of the month to do 60 miles and got carried away.

If you use the Marware Nike+ Pouch . . .

October 1, 2008 by wroolie 1 Comment

. . . make sure the sensor is in the right way.

A few years ago, I started using the sensor with velcro strapped to my shoe. It worked great. I even wrote about it.

This week I got a new pair of running shoes and started using a Marware pouch. I found that my three mile runs were being logged as two miles. I was gutted and the pouch was on its way to the bin.

Then I read the instructions more carefully. I had put the sensor in upside down.

Now I’m back from a run and want to post this before I forget. If you found this post because you are googling Marware pouch problems, I hope you find this tip useful.

Nike+ code will soon be on Google Code

September 16, 2008 by wroolie Leave a Comment

I’ve got some emails and comments from people looking for my api wrapper for the Nike+ Api and have been sending it out to whoever wants it. I hope it is proving useful.

Last night I finally for around to setting up a project on code.google.com to make the source code more available and open to modification by others.

I’ll post the URL and svn repository location when I finish uploading everything in the next few days.
