The Nike+ running sensor is quite cool. It’s basically 2 small pieces. One that plugs into your iPod (only works with iPods), and one that goes in or on your shoe. It’s an accelerometer, so it’s much more accurate than a simple pedometer. It tracks time, pace, and distance, and can give you updates through the headphones. You upload your run through iTunes to the Nike+ website where it tracks all your runs.

Here are a few good links to how it works, and methods for attaching the sensor to your shoe, if you don’t have one of the special Nike+ shoes.

Here are Kelly’s last 5 runs, and Toby’s last 5 runs:

Big Baby Ben took his first real steps just the day after his 1-year birthday party, which was just 4 days short of his actual birthday. Pretty exciting for him and for us. He’d been doing a lot of just standing on his own, and on this morning our neighbors came over with their almost 1-year old and the 2 kids were playing a bit together. He was standing again, and had this determination in his stance, Kelly and I both recognized that it looked like it was about to happen, and I quickly grabbed the video camera and captured it. I think Ben wanted to impress little Peter with his skills!
