Christmas is finally over. My brother suprised me this year by buying me one of those tiny ipod's with a GB of memory. so now I don't have to run without songs. Haven't used it for a run yet, rain and sickness has kept me away from the running, but I can't wait to head out with some tunes.

What's your favorite tune to run to? I think I'll throw in some braveheart.

  • Happy New Year! Lucky you -- I had to buy myself one of those for C'mas! Sent it in for waterproofing, and should be getting it back next week.

    I've got quite a variety of music that I like to listen to. Some times, it's music that I normally wouldn't listen to, but it works for jogs because of the beat. It'll be interesting to see what works for swimming :)

  • Happy New Year too, how has the waterproof ipod worked out while swimming. Seems like it might be cumbersome ... yes/no?

  • I've only used it thrice so far -- twice @ pool, once @ ocean. I think it'd be better for out-of-pool / slower workouts. Unless you wear a cap, you can't stroke up against the sides of your head / streamline out of the walls because the headphones might fall out.

    To answer your question, yes, it did take some time away from my workouts. I think I just need to get used to swimming with the contraption. When everything falls into place, the sound quality is pretty darn good.
