Mise en place

Whenever I set out to do a long task I like to put things in place first. A carry over from my chef days I find it easier to execute if all my ducks are in a row. I am going to be running in a pair of ASICS GT 2130 and after a long walk today around the Franklin Park Zoo they feel great and I love them. I think it is going to be important to have a positive relationship with my running shoes. I also picked up a Nike+iPod for my Nano. It is a great and surprisingly affordable little gadget you put in your shoe (or in my case on my shoe laces since I am not running in Nike sneaks) that uses a wireless connection to my iPod to track my runs for me. Time, distance, speed, calories burned the works. It even has a voice option that tells you your info if you don't want to look at your iPod while running. So with my new ASICS and iPod and if you can believe it the okay from my doctor, tomorrow I run.
