Folks the February Tinboats.Net Challenge for Nike + has been posted on the Nike Plus site. You may Walk, Jog, Run it all counts!!
Go to the Nike + site select gallery under challenges and look for the title: TinBoats.Net February Challenge
Select join and your Nike + miles will begin being tracked for this challenge on the day it starts. Challenge starts Feb 1st and ends Feb. 29th, most miles overall!!
Starting in March I will begin awarding the winner with a prize which i will chose, It will relate to fishing. To be considered for this you must be a active member of the site. Active member is set by Jims rules that he uses for the sites contest.
They are:
An active member is a member who makes four (4) measly posts per month.
Any questions about the challenges or nike + can be directed to me here or via pm.
We look forward to some more members joining up on the system, it is a inexpensive way to motivate yourself and track your progress. At a cost of $30.00 for the nike + and approx $10 to order a pouch to carry the sensor in if you are not wearing nike plus sneakers.
As i am sure many people know your treadmill does not track YOUR miles It tracks the speed the belt is moving at. The Nike plus system tracks YOUR miles via a sensor on your sneakers. You will be quite surprised how different your mileage compaired to the machines actually is. Many times you will find yourself doing less then what the treadmill tells you you are.
