There… I said it… I love Nike…

I have not really been a Nike fan… Ever… I love used to love Adidas… But then, Nike got the whole Web 2.0 thingy!

Did you see https://nikeplus.nike.com/ ? It’s brilliant! They know the secret of Web 2.0 so bloody well, they didn’t even predict the amount of traffic they were gonna get and they are down for maintenance! (my view ;-))

Nah… I’m not trying to bash Nike… I love ‘em… remember??

Now, I have never done this for any site before but I am gonna wait for this site to come up and upload my runs onto it!

I am gonna keep coming back to this site till it’s up.

I’m even gonna wake up from my sleep in the middle of the night to see if the site is up!

I’ve got to upload my runs on it – all that sweat; gotta pay off…

Why? ‘Cause they appeal to me, they connect me with my friends, they let me see how well I am doing they let me challenge my friends and they help me stay fit! They get it…

C’mon, what else could I ask for from Nike? I am wearing the sportband in my hand while writing this entry!

…calming down now…

Good news! (Woooot) The site is up! And I just uploaded my latest run stats here is what it looks like:

And they have emblems for my blog too!

P.S: I hate used to hate running! But now I am getting into it :-)

Good job Nike… I’ll be your fan now thank you!
