Okay, so are we all reading off the same sheet of music? Which C25K app did you download? I have Podcasts for Running by Robert Ullrey.

Topic: RE: Week 1
LOL. I think this first week will be a good learning experience on how to get your electronic "toys" to work correctly!
Your right I think you have to click game if you want it to count towards the "tag" game. Since I'm also using the nike+ system to track my "biking" miles as well, my whole things gonna be funky!! I wish Nike would just intergrate a "exercise" thing so you could catagorize your cardio work outs into something like run or Bike. Oh, well.
I'm running in the morning and that should go towards my "tag" game. lets see if I can get it all to work correctly this time!

Did you figure it out? In case you didn't, or for others that need to know, here's how to run Nike+ and the Podcast at the same time...
1. Start the Couch to 5K podcast. That can be found in the "Music" tab, so just click on Podcasts, and then click on the right week's cast.
2. When the podcast starts, THEN click the button at the bottom of the iPod (the button that takes you back to the opening screens) and click on Nike+GPS. Go through the steps to start, and click on NOW PLAYING when you get the area where you can choose your MUSIC.
If you are using pre 4th Generation iPod OR Nike+ with a sensor in your shoe - I don't remember. But my son has one, and I will update that info shortly.
That being said, I don't know how to let Nike+ know to count my runs in the challenge, so today's big run didn't count. I did 2mi in about 32mins, and of course it didn't count. Anyway, I think I figured it out - you have to go in and click which tag game you want it to count toward. I accidentally created a new one, so discard mine, and stick with Katari's. Sorry, I'm dumb. My next run will be in about 15mins when I go pick up my daughter from school... I will make this work!

Topic: Week 1
Check - in:
Started first day yesterday, did a 1.85 mile run, not to awfully bad, considering I had the kids, made a couple of stops, and had a hard time figuring out how to run both C25K and the Nike+ GPS programs at the same time!
My next run will be on Saturday Morning.
