if you've got the nike+ ipod integration, let's use this thread as a way to challenge one another.

this is how it'll work:
1. an individual wanting to compete, post here
2. state your challenge type and parameters (i.e. distance challenge, 3k; time challenge, 30 min.)
3. name your stakes. $5, a favor, gratuitous praise on atot, etc....
4. state your date or time frame if necessary, i.e. whoever runs the most between 7/25 and 7/30 or whomever has the shortest time to 100 miles within a month, etc. (careful, because we can also see your pace, so if you decide just to throw on the sensor as you walk around all day we'll know you're a big fat cheater!)
5. other parameters. here, you can also specify that the run has to take place during a specific time during the day, i.e. morning, afternoon, or night. this can add some variability and/or challenge, considering it's hot as sh!t at 1pm. :p

anyone accepting the challenge can post in this thread or PM the individual looking to challenge with your nike email address so that a formal challenge request can be sent.

i'm just typing this on the fly, so if there are any suggestions let me know and i'll amend my OP.

i'll go first:

my challenge parameters:
type: distance, 5k run
stakes: loser posts a pic in this thread holding a sign/paper stating: All my base are belong to [winner].
start date: open, but preferrably 7/18

edit: i have started a 30 day challenge to see who can run the most miles. the nike+ site allows up to 50 challengers, so let me know if you would like to compete and i'll send over an invitation.

there are currently two challengers.

I don't have this Nike+iPod thing, but I'll take anyone in any footrace over 3 miles :)

i actually had on old pair of nike shox (well, not too old - about 8 months) that were falling apart. i took them into a niketown store, and got a credit for $100 for the "defective" shoes. i used that credit for the new shoes, woot.

so, RichieZ....do you want to set up a challenge?
