I like to run by myself, but I also like all many kinds of partners. At one time, I was running part of my mileage with a friend that lived close by, then I would get in the car and drive to my sister’s and finish out the mileage with her. This winter has been great – I’ve been able to maintain running outside most of the time, but there have been some days on the treadmill.
Mike got me this Motorola S305 Bluetooth Stereo Headset for Christmas. I love it. My indoor treadmill workouts can be long and I get through them by propping my laptop on a few of my food storage buckets so that I can watch some of my favorite shows on Hulu. My treadmill is a hand-me-down from dad and it is indestructible, but it is very loud. So, I have been wearing my headphones, hooked to my laptop, hoping that I don’t yank the laptop off of the buckets. It’s a close stretch . . . . . not anymore. These are wireless and make me oh, so happy. And, the stereo sound is so great that I can barely hear the roaring of the treadmill.
Half-Marathon training starts in a couple of weeks. I’m almost positive these will become my best friend.
