I have to say that this "success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines" stuff has affected me more than just running more consistently, which was my original goal. I'm seeing other things in my life that are changing for the better as a result of this stuff too. It's pretty funny to me, and I hope everyone else is seeing the same sort of thing. I'm also sleeping better (usually) and do have more energy during the day.
I'm going to try the mp3 player on my cell phone once more this Saturday before I embark on an ipod journey, and I hope to avoid buying one. Not that I don't like them, I'd lovet to have one, but that is money I don't need to spend if my cell phone will do the trick. I'd planned on taking my cell phone with me for the marathon and this would just shorten the list of stuff I have to tote. We'll see if it works. I have a bunch of good music ready to load, so we'll see how it goes. The drawback is that my cell phone only has a 1 gb memory stick, and that's not a whole lot of music. We'll see if it can get me through a marathon. See everyone tomorrow, bright and early.
Oh, I have to admit that I ran on Friday just as an experiment today. I was used to running on Friday way back the last time I was consistent with running, and it didn't tire me out. It may now, but I'll know for sure tomorrow. I did do just an easy run today, slower than usual, etc. We'll see if I feel great or if I pay for it tomorrow. And on a better note, I joined Baptist HP last night, so I'll be going there a couple of times a week (at least) to get some weights and other crosstraining in. I'm quite excited. Can't wait to use it.

Maybe I'll see you at the Healthplex. I've been going when I get off work at 4:30 p.m. to take advantage of the pool and see if I can keep up with you guys while my knee continues to heal. Since my daughter is here from out of town, I probably won't go to the pool until Sunday afternoon. Good luck tomorrow!

Hey
If your cell phone doesn't work then you should try the creative labs muvo. I've had mine for 3 years and have had no problems with it. The smaller memory one is about 39bucks and very easy to use. I passed my smaller one down to my husband and got the bigger one(about 200 songs) for less than 100bucks.

About the cell phone: I bought an mp3 player for right around $80. Not cheap, but not quite as expensive as an ipod. And I have talked to 3 different people who have gotten an ipod in some form or other, and theirs have all died within a year. They were under warranties, but still, who wants to deal with all that? I know that mp3 players aren't quite as technologically advanced as the ipods, but if you're only wanting it for the music, it should work just fine. Ayway, great seeing you out there today! Doing good!
I have a Slvr that has and mp3 in it. I love being able to have a cell phone and music in one. Hope yours works as well as mine has.
Get the Nano iPod if you have to buy one. You can get a Nike pedometer to attach and it has some great software to track and log your runs. good luck either way.
