States or Countries You've Run In?
Just a fun thing I thought might be interesting. There are several sites where you can create custom shaded maps. I thought I'd make a map of the states I've run.

Share your running playlist
I never used to listen to music when I run (and I still don't for trail running) but somewhere along the line I created a playlist and now I'll listen to music about half the time I'm running pavement, particularly on long runs. I'm always looking for new songs. If you've got a playlist, please share it here. On my…

What's your favorite running accessory?
Not including your shoes, what's your favorite running accessory? Your GPS? hat? shoelaces? I'll tell you mine after I see what others bring up. My favorite accessory is actually something I don't take along on a run.

Trail Running Footwear
Those of you who run trails, what are you using for footwear? I've been hiking quite a bit lately, up to 14 miles per hike. At times I feel motivated to run so I'll run for 100 yards or so then slow down and walk. I can see where I might get to the point some day where I'm doing more running than walking so I'm starting…
