Cool. One you register, please post in here your Nike+ name so we can all know who is who.

You probably need to see a physio not a doc. Strengthen the tendons on the outside of your knee. Have you ever filmed yourself running? Bet your knees are all over the shop

i had a miss hap last night... got about 1km into my circuit and realised that my tracker wasn't working... took off my shoe and to my horror found it empty!!! I retraced my steps and there it was chilling out beside a tree waiting for me.
- oh no! mine completely missed a workout once... it was tragicmegE

What do you mean it isn't working? nikerunning.com works just fine but that is not the nikeplus site.
The nike plus site is http://nikerunning.nike.com/nikeā¦ and maintenance is now completed.

anyone else struggle a bit at a certain point in the run.. then when you run past strangers, you suck it up and pretend you're not it pain.. meanwhile you forget to breathe haha me neither

Good question......
I was thinking in having the next challenge right when the next Nike+ Human Race happens. This to push ourselves harder... to train, and maybe have some extra motivation.
For those who don't know what the NIKE+ Human Race is...... it is a 10k marathon that takes place all around the world at the same time... "almost". About 15 cities around the globe (New York, Tokyo, London, Mexico City, Vancouver,...) will have a special event... like an actual marathon with music and stuff. Of course one doesn't have to actually attend this marathon... one can run for competition on a treadmill at home or by yourself around the block or in any other city that doesn't have the event. Only thing is that it needs to be done on the same day of the marathon. You time gets registared when you upload your 10km run and hundreds of thousands around the globe log in their runs... and so it's a world wide race ;o) You wouldn't be only competing against Dancer or Meeklo... but people from japan, somalia, denver, milan, etc...
Here's a quick vid on the Human Race from last year in Mexico City:
The new edition of the NIKE+ Human Race takes place October 24th.
Our next challenge will also happen as it usually does... 30 days Qbn'ers vs Qbn'ers... but for one day (Oct 24) your run (has to be 10k) will count towards the Human Race.
The thing right now is that dates don't quite match... coz if we do our 30 days... the Human Race will take place in between C11 and C12.
So perhaps this time we can do a 45-60 day Challenge to ensure the Human Race happens in the last few days of our challenge and everybody can have the motivation to train and push themselves harder for the Human Race.Thoughts?

Just removed Animacion, Elfausto and Connie.
LeCorbusier just typed "meow" in the challenge... which means he is alive, but still doesn't tell us anything about him.
LeCorbusier... If you are related to QBN in some way you may stay. otherwise you'll be removed.
