It has been fun to read everyone's introduction. I have heard through the grapevine that there are some very competitive people out there (you know who you are). I hope to give you a good run for the money. Two days and 8 points. I only have to do this 82 more times : )

A couple of fun tools I have found that I thought I would pass along:

1. Trailguru for iPhone or iTouch (tracks your time and milage as you run also includes your elevation. When you are done, you can post your run to the internet complete with picture if you choose.)

2. Lose it for iPhone or iTouch (Tracks your daily weight, and diet. You can set weight loss goals and it lets you know how many calories you can eat to hit your goal and then tracks your progress against that. You can also enter your exercise and it will take than into account as well.

A note on my geeky side - I like to track my progress against my goals in Excel creating graphs on how I am doing. As they say, you can not improve what you do not measure (or maybe that is just engineers who say that: ) If anyone is interested, I would be glad to share the format.

Good luck all,
Jake
