Any Nike+ iPod owners?

I'm hoping to buy this with my refund. So I would be interested in joining next month. Though a time one would work better for me, as I don't cover a lot of mileage! But the challenge aspect is still very helpful in keeping me honest.

""I was looking at the Nike+ ipod on the REI site, and it says that the "sensor will only work in enabled Nike+ shoes". So that's not true?""

I bought the same one referenced above through Amazon. It works GREAT. Before that (lol) I was duct taping it to my shoe tongue. Didn't work QUITE as well, but was generally effective enough! They LIE.. don't have to buy the shoes. I even read somewhere the directions someone posted to cut out a spot under the insoles of your shoes and put it in there. I'm not that brave!

That would be great! I will look into the "time challenge" for next month for sure. The more participants the merrier for sure! Here we go!

Diving - I just stuck mine under the top of my shoe for the first month and a half and it worked fine but those "pouches" are a little better. You definately don't need the shoes.

I needed shoes anyway and I just lucked out because the Nike+ ones happened to be the best fit running shoe I tried on and cheaper then the other pair I was considering so I went with the Nike+. Nice to not have to worry about where my chip is now.

Tiffany - 100 miles in 8 weeks that's awesome!

As far as what type of challenge for the next one... I'm fine with whatever. It doesn't have to be distance. I don't run that far either I'm still doing a learn walk/run, but I also walk a lot so my miles tend to be higher then other beginners.

Way to go everyone! We're off to a GREAT start!
