New running toys! (with pictures!)

I just came from a seminar in Batangas, and my parents have returned from their trip to the USA, and I now have plenty of new running toys. Hehehe! I am now the proud owner of…

1. iPod Nano 4th Gen- This was actually the first of many pasalubongs, and actually came from my ninong in the US, as quite a surprise. When I put it on my wishlist, I didn’t really think I’d end up getting it. But I did, in a nice silver, and it’s now full of my favorite songs, including some custom running mixes with voiceover by coach Jay Blahnik.

2. Nike+iPod Sensor- What’s the use of having an iPod if you don’t have the Nike+ iPod Sensor? It’s a cool chip which you put into your Nike+ shoe (which I don’t have yet) and then connects to your iPod. It’s amazing!

3. Nathan Shoe Pouch- Since I don’t have a Nike+ shoe yet (although I really want the Lunarglide+), I’ll have to stick with this, which is a small shoe pouch which you strap onto the shoelaces of your shoes. You can also put in things like a very small ID card (or a dogtag), just like a RoadID.

4. Nike Armband- I looked for something like this for my Creative Zen before, but the one I found was really bulky. This, however, is one thing I love about the iPod, and it’s that there are so many accessories made for it, this one being one of the best. It’s tight, thin, and lightweight. It feels like nothing!

5. Adidas Climacool Shirt- I originally wanted a Nike Pro compression shirt, but this will do! It’s gray with orange stripes, and has a great feel.

In full porma-ness, I’ll be in a mix of Nike, Adidas, Underarmor, and Greenhills Chipipay Shorts. I just have to train harder, train stronger, and I soon hope to run fast, long, and all while looking awesome.
