nike plus
ok - i'm really excited about something.
>> nike+
i'm a huge dork about data collection. for instance, i recently started tracking all my training runs on nike's training log (online in their running section), because its super cool and graphs my progress and keeps track of all sorts of things like how much i sleep, weigh, how hot it is, what terrain i ran on, my running distances, paces, if i have injuries, if i lifted weights, etc...
i also track my running loops using mapmyrun.com to get accurate distances so i can make sure my paces are on target. i've got over 20 runs saved online on their site now.
but with this new merge between my shoes and music... i can start getting more accurate data (i hope), an even better interface for tracking my progress (i hope) and real-time data? how fun is that!
and the clothing they've been working on for carrying the nano is super cool - major flash back to my grad school days...
sadly its not available until mid-july so now i have to wait and dream about how great it will be. i hope it doesn't disappoint.
sigh.
well -- i guess this gives me a little time to save up for the nano i have to purchase. i definitely need new shoes anyways, so that expense is necessary (secret internal rejoicing)...
oh data data data data! come to mama!

Until then, you should get the Garmin 301. It tracks your heart rate along with GPS position, elevation, speed, and a host of other information. You can pre-program workouts (with alarms to tell you if you're going too fast/slow or your heart rate is too low/high) and then you can download all the data and plot it out on a map or on graphs.
I got one a few months ago and LOVE IT. I seriously want to wear it all day long just to track my every move.
