The Dilemma

I'm not sure what to do.  Currently I am using the miCoach iPod app to record my distance, pace and time.  Which is great because I love trainspotting my running.  Finally the miCoach iPod speed_cell and iPod connect is available in Australia.  It retails here for $99.00 and I'm really considering buying it.  It would also hook up to my heart rate monitor and I would be able to track that as well.  Also when I play tennis and soccer or any other sport I wont have to wear my iPod to record any data as the speed_cell will do all that and I can sync it later. 

I have recently made an exercise and medicine ball purchase and doing some core strength exercise.  As my back played up a couple of weeks ago I'm going to do my best in strengthening my core and make sure that I stretch as much as I can.  I don't see my running as a year to year thing.  I see it as a life time thing.  Not to mention all the cool gadgets and technology that is coming out.  I used to joke with friends about 20 years ago that soon I would need an instruction book when I bought shoes.  Now when I buy shoes there better be an instruction book!
