I live a few blocks away from Lake Michigan and a run in the morning lets me start my days with the sun rising over the lake. I track my runs with
Nike+. It's a very affordable sensor for your shoe with a small chip to attach to your iPod Nano that tracks your pace, mileage, etc., whuch you then upload to your own web page.
By June of 2008 I had tracked 1,000 miles, most of which I had run in the previous 12 months.
Thanks to Erin McClellan for the use of this beautiful photo of the lakefront trail on a foggy morning just after sunrise.
