diamonds2002 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 (edited) I would be interested but need some more info e.g. what is the nike running club Edited January 29, 2008 by diamonds2002 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundermonkey Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 I would be interested but need some more info e.g. what is the nike running club It's the P&B Running Club and if you have Nike+ then it doesn't matter where you are, you can still join in. Since everyone on P&B come from all over the place the Nike+ system enables folk to run 'together' virtually, compete in the same challenges and acheive the same milestones and targets. If you have Nike+ running gear then you can join exclusive P&B running challenges and create your own. All you have to do is post or PM your Nike+ username and I (or whoever has set up the challenge) will sign you up. Then it doesn't matter if you're in Berwick or Dingwall, Gourock or Dundee - you can still run with or against fellow P&Bers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diamonds2002 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Do you have access to an iPod Nano? You need one of those first. My initial research has established this. I do not own any MP3 players so I will have to decline. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orlandoblue Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 If you set the nike + to a certain distance will it automatically tell you when you are half way (in order to do a prompt about turn) or do you need to set this up manually aswell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluenose5 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Im interested in joining this. How much are these Nike+ shoes anyway, they sound good. I do running anyway but have always wanted to know the distance and speed etc of what I run, so does these Nike+ tell you all this on your iPod? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you set a distance, time or calorie target it gives you updates. I measure my runs in miles and it updates every half mile. It also tells you that you are at the halfway point. You can choose between a male or female voice. If you acheive a milestone - fastest mile etc Paula Radcliffe or Lance Armstrong congratulates me Im interested in joining this. How much are these Nike+ shoes anyway, they sound good. I do running anyway but have always wanted to know the distance and speed etc of what I run, so does these Nike+ tell you all this on your iPod? Tells you your time, distance, pace and calories burned. Sensor and transmitter come in at £20 and there are bargains to be had on the trainers online (from £45 I'm sure I've seen). Or you could buy the little pouches/pods for attaching the transmitter to any shoe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Sensible Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 (edited) The targets aren't very challenging thundermonkey. I usually do 70 miles in a week as it is. I'd achieve the 100 miles in 9 days. Edited January 31, 2008 by Captain_Sensible 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
