TrailGuru

Out for a run with the kids this morning. I've been using TrailGuru on the iPhone to help track my runs. By and large it works well enough for my purposes. The only times I run into trouble are when I'm in the forest for an extended period - the signal gets lost.

Anyways, I used an armband today instead of putting the phone in a pocket or carrying it. I was pleased with the results. The app was able to maintain a better signal for the entire run.

Spring Break

It's spring break time so we're up at Whistler, BC for a few days of rest and relaxation. It's been snowing all weekend which has made the trip even better. Soft, crunchy snow ... great for snowballs.

The reason I mention this is that these trips provide an opportunity to spend time pursuing new interests. On this trip, the time was spent getting up to speed on twitter and, as a by-product, finding out about twine and kosmix. More to come once I've had some time to play around.

Back to Whistler, things are gearing up for the Olympics next year. Still a bunch of work to do on the road, but the venues are coming along nicely and if we have this much snow next year, the whole thing should be great
