Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

Congratulations to you both on your success. As an author, coach and exercise physiologist for over 26 years, I can say that Coach Al Lyman is one of the rare gems in the world of endurance sports. He is well educated, thoughtful, thorough, and thinks on cutting edge level. It is no surprise to read of your successes under Coach Al’s tutelage. Everyone stay tuned, because I forecast many great and useful contributions from Coach Al in the future.

Did you just do one of the goal time training plans, or did you do the online coaching? As much as I would love online coaching, I’m just not sure I could afford that right now. But I could probably do a training plan. Of course, I probably need to chill out a little soon, so I probably wouldn’t be in the market for this until next year or so, but it still sounds great and since you’ve given it such a great review I’m convinced it is something I should consider to take my running to a new level.

OK, you’ve talked about Coach Al lots of times before, so now I’m going to stop procrastinating and check it out. Have a great day!!

P.S. Did you read on facebook about my running adventure the other day? The gross snail? The dog poop? Both on the same run? I actually did decide to go ahead and get new shoes… it was about time anyway

OMG, this was me when I started running, too. When you have a big goal, I agree, every workout has got to count! Kara from MamaSweats last blog post..If the President-elect can find time to exercise, so can you!
