I can't believe it myself.
Today, I CHOSE to put on the Nike/iPod shoes and go for a run because I WANTED to hear the little voice come on and say "one mile complete" and "half way" and finally "400 meters to go".
The only glitch in the system - and there's no way to resolve this with a foot pod - is that it can't adjust to different run/walk ratios. So, if you get it calibrated for - say - a run 10/walk 1 sequence then it's not calibrated correctly if you do a 5/1. But, it's close enough to use.
So, I did an "out-and-back" heading north just so that I could turn around when the voice told me that I was half way done.
VERY cool.
ORN: 5 miles, R5/W1, 59 minutes

THe Nike+iPod inspired me to start running a couple weeks ago and along with your book, Courage to Start, I'm hooked!
