uh, are they running? if so, I'll kick the shit out of Massimo and Sag's weak asses!

I hear Carson runs like a girl

the whole concept of a designer or a programmer running is just weird.
Most of the people I have dealt with are either way to fragile to even attempt to get some sun or are simply chubby and don't walk outdoors more than 100 ft a day.
Looks like we'll be making history here.
- yeah, most people look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them I'm a designer. I'LL FUCKING CRUSH THEM!!!Point5
- I totally get ya. I mean, I am incredibly handsome and strong and people are always like you should be a model!VectorMasked
- hahaha at modelMeeklo
- Meeklo0
exactly! "SOME designers do run".
I'm coughing most of the time my run, that's cause I'm holding my ipod on one hand and my coffee on the other, so I really have no place to hold my cigarette than on my lips.Besides I have read hair and beard, and I'm really pale. So if its really sunny the effect you get with me exposed to daylight will be similar to the one you would get by throwing a coke can in the microwave...
- *during my runMeeklo
- haha!
do you by any chance wear head bands and tight shorts?VectorMasked
- VectorMasked0
uh...one question
I have gained over 10 lbs in the last couple of months. Mostly due to total inactivity and pizza.
Am I allowed to roll for the first couple of weeks and then of course, start using my feet around the 3rd week?
- StratusGD0
Crap. Guess I'd better get new running shoes so I can maybe stop giving myself shin splints.
- doesnotexist0
lame.
- KevinTx0

To participate you need.
1 - Will power
2 - Running shoes
3a - Ipod mini and Nike+ system http://www.apple.com/ipod/nike/or
3b - Nike Band (not out yet) http://nikeplus.nike.com/nikeplu…if you don't like nike shoes, or you already have a pair that doesn't support the sensor, you can attach it to any shoe with a lot of 3rd party pouches that costs like 5 bucks or less on ebay, it works with any shoe brand.
- KevinTx0
thats the nike amp bracelet.. i just got one, its way dumb. I love it.
- VectorMasked0
so wtf. Anybody here have that damn sportband yet?
Can't find info on where it will be available in canada. Checked the local Nike store and asked 3 of their staff and they just said <monkey sounds> "i don't know...what is that...ask that other guy...my guess is that it'll take a few months before it is sold in canada"</monkey sounds>
- can't you get it online and shipped there?Meeklo
- yes and no. The niko store won't ship it here. Some stores in the UK can ship it but not in time for the challenge.VectorMasked
