iPhone and the Nike+
Frustratingly and not for the first time this week I was half a mile into a run and realised that I hadn’t activated the sensor. Or I should say that I did activate it but it went to sleep again before I started running. It may have been that the auto-lock on the phone kicked in before I started as I’d been playing with the settings on the treadmill. I’d decided to use one of the interval programs that adjusts speed and inline automatically. I have no idea of the benefits of this, I usually just start it and run a couple of miles at 5mph.
So having had a false half mile start I cancelled the workout I was on and started it again with a nominal mile as I was following the treadmills 20 min workout, not the Nike+. I got going again and checked my pace, pressing the home button, to find that while the voice told me I was x miles in the corresponding number on the display matched what she said but was displaying Kilometres. I did a screen shot after the 1 mile was up but after I’d done it it reverted back to miles. The screenshot showed miles too. Must be a glitch in the system.
One disappointing thing that doesn’t seem to be on the iPhone is the celebrity voices acknowledging personal bests, etc. I’ve not heard any yet so I’m assuming they aren’t there. Its either that or they are staying quiet because I must try harder.
