Test Numero Dos: Nike+iPod

Few days ago I took a two hour ride down from Marietta to Columbus to return the first Nike+iPod sport kit I purchased for a new one. If you recall the first one wasn’t reading my pace correctly. It completely insulted me by saying I was running 25 minute and 31 minute miles. No way Jose I wasn’t! With my run today I tested the new sensor out and while it wasn’t reading as badly as the first I am still unimpressed. Perhaps my blonde hair is starting to come in and I just can’t seem to get this simple technology down, but this time after I had calibrated the darn thing for 10 minutes miles, I noticed it reading my pace at 8:40 and 9:20 minute miles even though I ran the first miles at 10 minutes and the last three at 9:40. I saw 25 minute and 14 minute miles pop up only for a quick second, but nothing long enough to throw off the entire workout, though I’m still going to go off the treadmill today over the sensor.
