Decided to abandon my attempt to keep this diary in synch with Nike+. I've missed a couple of runs with the Nike+ for one reason or another, and tried to keep the diary in synch by rounding down runs to the nearest mile, then allowing the bits and pieces to accumulate on the Nike+ side. Today was the last straw though. Was about to start an 11 mile run, and couldn't get the iPod to recognize the Nike+ receiver. So, I've put all my runs into a spreadsheet on Google docs, and replaced the old Nike+ graphic that used to appear at the top right with the Progress-O-Meter - some calculations from the spreadsheet. The spreadsheet is here. (The accumulated rounding, plus a run with Doug that I did not count for the diary, have bumped my mileage by about 6.)
I'll still use the Nike+ to keep track of my mileage for each run - it is a useful and fun device - but this diary will now be my "official" mileage count.
