Egh, speaking of heat and humidity... has anyone else been having problems with gnats on the post-rain day? I've had a couple of runs that were just nasty... I had to wipe them off my face every few minutes, and when I got home, my shoulders and neckline were covered in them. So gross.
Anyway, though, woohoo, almost 71 miles on my Nike+ kit so far, still hoping to reach 100 this week, although it's kind of nasty outside right now, and I'm not sure about outdoor running today. Also, I gave blood, so I have to think about whether I need to lay off for the day or not.
Plus, final-score.com e-mailed me another 20% off >$50 coupon, so I'ma thinking about getting my next running shoes in advance.
I think this pair has another 200 miles in it or so.
Does anyone else here use Saucony Grid Omnis or Progrid Omnis? I'm wondering if anyone who likes these shoes has had experience with the Brooks equivalents, like the Adrenaline GTS?
P.S. I just jury-rigged my sensor into my shoelaces, and it works wonderfully. The pouches are nice, but I wouldn't overly feel like they're necessary. An example of what you can do is get some duct tape, cut two pieces that are longer than the sensor, and sandwich the sensor between them. Then just punch holes on the two long sides and put it into the laces. Cost: $0.20 or so.
Just make sure the sensor is somewhere stable, like between the tongue and laces, and apparently it also needs to be oriented with the long axis along the long axis of the shoe. A number of people have reported using a dremel to grind out a hole under their insole, like the Nike shoes have, but I have not yet been so courageous.
