Nathan Speed 2

Purchased a Nathan Speed 2 waistpack. I feel/look like a huge dork...but at least now I have a readily available supply of water and don't have to be Edward Bottlehands.

It's OFFICIAL

Tonight was my first "official" run of my training program. I was supposed to run 3 miles and ran 3.87. I guess that either google maps isn't the best at estimation of sidewalk length or my GPS added some distance in there. It was pretty chilly tonight and I wore a hat and gloves which turned out to be a huge mistake. My hands were clammy and sweaty after a mile and I ended up taking the gloves off and carrying them the rest of the way. I also carried my phone so I could use my GPS and that is also a pain...it's rather large and doesn't fit in my hand well (Samsung Galaxy S2). Looks like it's time to get one of those runner's belts...
