Hi, leider kann man den Artikel “EyeTV & GeekTool » Show Scheduled Recordings” nicht kommentieren. Deswegen tu ich das hier. Ist das Script aktuell noch verwendbar? Zum Laufen bekomme ich es nicht, oder muss ich mehr tun als die Pfade anpassen? Ich habe leider keine Script-Kenntnisse.

Uiii das muss ich am Wochenende auch mal probieren! Brät der Fisch nicht ziemlich fest am Rost? Wir haben letztens Forellen (oder Saibling?) auf dem Grill gemacht, die sahen mehr so frankenfischig aus, als sie fertig waren…

I don’t understand what have written above this photos. I just admire the photos that were posted above. I like mountain climbing or even wall climbing. Actually, any activity will excite me especially if it promise a maximum adventure. Just by looking the photo I do imagine myself being there. For sure that will be fun. It is not easy ofcourse but I am sure I will love the experience. Thank you for sharing this post.

does taking quality photos matters with the camera lenses? what is actually the best camera lens one must have? there are so many camera brands available at the market, can you suggest which one gives a clearer and quality picture?

Hallo,
seit 2009 hat sich im Panostore dann doch wohl etwas verändert. Nicht sofort lieferbare Ware wird auf der Homepage auch so angezeigt, am Telefon war mehrmals sofort kompetente Hilfe abrufbar, Sonderwünsche bezüglich des Versands wurden berücksichtigt, der Versand selbst per DHL-Tracking gut zu verfolgen.
Ich schreibe dies nicht, weil ich Mitarbeiter des Panostore bin, sondern weil das digitale Gedächtnis unerbittlich an schon überholten Informationen festhält, die oft eben nicht mehr zutreffen.
MfG

Comment on Nodal Ninja 3 MKII by tmb

tmb — Mon, 06 Jun 2011 08:22:47 +0000

Hallo Heike,

ich find den NN3 MK2 immer noch klasse. Für mich ist da vor allem das kleine Packmaß (samt geringem Gewicht) entscheidend. Dafür erkaufe ich mir einige Nachteile (allem voran, dass ich mit meiner D200 auf Grund der Größe der Kamera nicht ganz auf 360*180° komme, da ich nicht direkt nach oben fotografieren kann).
Der Ultimate R1 wäre mir zu einschränkend (nur Single-Row mit Fish-Eye). Ich wäre da eher zum NN5 tendiert, damit ich noch größere Panos (z.B. mit dem 70-200) machen könnte.

cheeers,
-tmb

Kleiner Nachtrag zum gestrigen Fotoshooting:

Wem das zu langsam ist, hier ist die schnellere Variante.
Was ich dabei gelernt habe:
1) Auto wirklich in die Mitte des Kreises stellen!
2) ein ebener Untergrund ist wichtig
3) mit EDV kann man viel ausgleichen, aber nicht alles

Den zweiten Versuch werde ich in ‘nem Parkhaus starten. Mal gucken welches sich da anbietet…

Ach ne, das habe ich ja eigentlich schon: Ein Fadenvorhang ist vom Umzug noch übrig geblieben. Hoffnungslos verheddert. Damit starte ich , muss ja nicht gleich so massiv wie Euer Teppich werden.

Hey Stephan,

irgendwie hast Du das Posting wohl in einen sehr persönlichen – aber dennoch falschen – Hals bekommen. Zumindest hat uns Deine Formulierung von “Hallen- und Heizungkletterer(n)” köstlichst amüsiert! Bitte mehr davon! Im übrigen gibt es noch viele andere Alternativen zum zu Hause bleiben: zum Beispiel draussen klettern (hast Du wahrscheinlich noch nichts von gehört, aber frag mal in dem Kletterladen Deiner Wahl danach) oder in andere Hallen gehen (aber auch dazu musst Du natürlich über den Tellerrand schauen). Ansonsten weiss ich ja nicht was Du als “Sturz” bezeichnest, aber was soll denn 1cm Schotter ab”federn”. LOL! Wer gescheit klettert, braucht sowas IMHO nicht!

Hi,
ich geb´s zu, der Kiesboden ist nicht sehr sauber, aber zum einem ist Klettern nun mal kein “steriler” Sport und zum andeen hat die “dümmste Idee” überhaupt schon so manchen Sturz abgefedert, den ihr Hallen- und Heizungkletterer irgendwie andauernd zu provozieren scheint. Nix für ungut, aber wenn dich sowas stört – bleib einfach zu Hause und vergiss nicht dir die Hände zu waschen und den Ofen anzuschüren.

ich habe auch ans Segeln gedacht, aber das geht wohl nur, wenn wir eine verlassene Insel finden. So ruhig kann das Meer nicht werden ;-) Viel mehr wird’s dann wohl die Wüste oder das Outback werden. Oder eben irgendwo oben auf’m Berg!

Hier ein Tipp zum Offenblendenfokussieren: Die Tiefenschärfe ist bei Offenblende teilweise so gering, dass kleinste Körperschwankungen zwischen Fokussieren und Auslösen zu Unschärfe führen können. Ich arbeite daher soweit möglich mit kontinuierlichem Autofokus, evtl. mittels aussermittigem Autofokusmeßfeld. Hierdurch konnte ich meine Resultate bzgl. Schärfe deutlich verbessern.

Zum Testen einfach mal gucken, ob Ihr den Film direkt anschauen könnt.

Hey Du,

fand auch das das eine tolle Erfindung ist. Vor allem brauch im mir jetzt nicht mehr so genau merken, wo ich die Bilder in den Bergen / im Urlaub mache. Der Exhibitionismus wurde auf eine neue Ebene gehoben :)
Das mit den unterschiedlichen Zoom Werten lag eigentlich mehr daran, dass das erste Bild ein “Panorama-Bild” (bestehend aus 4 Bildern) ist. Beide sind vom Parkhaus aus gemacht (also beide im stehen). Aber nette Idee ;)

I am still gonna keep my miles up but I should not be over the weekly amount by much. I decided I want to do the Nike+ 1/2 half marathon next month. If you need to bump me I understand but I would love to stay with you guys for a few more months. My run this weekend has inspired my daughter(she is 11) to try to run one with me later and a couple of my friends as well. It was an awesome experience and I believe I am going to try a full MArathon in April 2008!!

Grieser — Fri, 07 Sep 2007 12:31:47 +0000

I too am training for a half marathon in Mid October and my later September training will put me over the weekly limit, but only by a couple of miles per week.

I really do appreciate this challenge and like to see how many people join and are encouraged to see the progress. One thought though, it is disheartening to see that the top 5 runners are “invincible” because they are training for a half marathon. The competitor in me is disappointed because I fully admit I am at the top end of the “beginners” group and if they weren’t there I could make it to the top 5!

How about next time these “invisibles” start their own challenge. Same result, except the other 200 people in the challenge won’t have to scroll to the 3rd page to see the non-marathoner’s results for the month.

Hi tmb,
I would also like to join the IL if possible, I have been in this group since May and have now started to increase my mileage ( Half Marathon not until November 18th but what the hell! ). I did 45k last week & already 25 this, it’s fine if this is too much as I expected “the elbow” this month anyhoo. ( Although I shall miss you all terribly! )

Thanks for all your efforts as I have never said it before, I will agree with other posters in saying this is the best challenge I am or have been in.

Cheers fella

Comment on [Nike+] September Beginners Challenge by tmb

tmb — Mon, 03 Sep 2007 11:33:26 +0000

just a couple quick answer while digesting the lunch:

@steveinkc: LOL – i liked the »touch my bum« version, but it should probably be more like »too much bum« ;)

@Ladyaudrey: Over the past few months we had quite a few discussions on what a beginner is. At some point I fixed 20mi for no reason at all. It used to be 20k before, but some runners got past that on their first week running. The intermeds run something in the area of 50-70k per week, so there’s still some room here and hence the new invincible list. I actually might increase the weekly cap to 40k next month. We’ll see how things go along. For me the basic idea is motivation. It’s a fine line between appealing to many runners while NOT loosing the 10k per month runners.
So if you feel like you belong here and are willing to go by the rules, you qualify as a beginner if you ask me.

Comment on [Nike+] September Beginners Challenge by Ladyaudrey

Ladyaudrey — Mon, 03 Sep 2007 02:57:52 +0000

TMB, my average daily run from August 1 to today is 3.44 miles, but I have been steadily increasing my distance. I tend to go 3-4 miles per day, but every so often I go farther when distracted by a companion. I don’t seem to be in danger of leading the standings, but I am likely to go over the 32k/week limit. My pace has been steadily increasing, but I’m still a slug with a personal goal of 10 runs/month at less than 14:20/mile. I’ll never be a runner. So tell me please, what’s a beginner?

hi TMB,

Must be a popular month for half marathons, I have the Great North Run here in good old england at end of month and my next 2/3 weeks will see my mileage ramp up before scaling down ready for the 30th. If I am crazily over feel free to “boot me” as I don’t want to be a negative to other beginners, as I know how frustrating that can be. Cheers for organising this and as many of the other posts say, this really has been such a motivator and by far the “best” challenge.

Cheers……..Mark

Hi tmb,

I would like to ask to be placed on the invicible list. I am doing about 20-25 miles a week to prepare for the Nike+ Womens Half Marathon next month. Also I am going to be logging about 18 miles from yesterday and today because I was ill earlier this week and did not run. Then my week begins tomorrow (monday) all over again. So that will put me over the limit before the first week is over.

I hope you will consider letting me continue on. Thanks!

Maybe we (bosstjanz and saska) will have few shots, but of 10k instead of more of 5k, because we have no time to run more times.

And yes, I am laso interested what tmb means…

TMB,

I’ll let you decide if I’m a beginner or not still. I have been participating in your challenges since May. I didn’t get an invite last month so I assumed you no longer considered me a beginner. I enjoy your challenges because you boot the non-beginners like that Italian guy that runs 6 minute miles and joins every challenge. I don’t want to be the guy that discourages the brand new beginners because they can’t catch him.

I began running again in March after 5 years of being a couch potato. (I accumulated a lot of butter and sour cream during those 5 years.) I’m very motivated and have made great progress. I am training for an Oct. 21 Marathon so I will have two monster runs this month in addition to my weekly miles, which will exceed 25.

I’m not trying to be a boot licker but these challenges have been good motivation for me over the past months and I would not be doing the miles I am today if I hadn’t had that motivation in May and June (was injured in July). Maybe I can be motivation for other beginners. If I can go from over-weight lazy couch potato to a marathon runner in 7 months at the age of 41, anyone should be able to. Thanks for the great challenges. I hope you’ll consider my plea.

PS
What does TMB stand for? Too Many Beers? Touch My Bum? Just Curious.

I am training for a half marathon which takes place on 21 Oct. I am thinking this will be my last month for the awesome beginners challenge. I might rejoin in November when my mileage will go down a bit. If I could be considered for your special list, that would be swell. Thanks! :)

Hi tmb.
Thanks again for all the time/effort you put into these challenges, notwithstanding all your other activities.
I won’t be joining you guys for the half-marathon or even the 10K as I’m still recovering from the stress fracture in my foot ‘earned’ during July’s challenge. Gotta take things a bit slower this month or my physio bills will drain my bank account completely!
Good luck with the half-M if you decide to upgrade.

@bela1931: hey bela, I most certainly remember your foot injury. It's so good to hear you are not only healed but catching up with your training as well. Good luck to your »scary« 13k. Be sure to train well so them ghost won't catch you ;)

HI tmb!

I can’t remember what the cap is these days, so I thought I’d better write you just in case. I’m preparing for a 13k on 10/27, and my training plan requires 11-14 miles/ week. This will be my first race that’s longer than a 5k. I’m very excited =) The run takes place at Disney/MGM on a night very close to Halloween. The run has a scary theme, and will end at the Twilight Zone’s Tower of Terror. Maybe you remember that I disappeared for a while in June/ July due to a foot injury.. we’ll I’m finally catching up to where I left off. Yay!
Good luck with your Einstein Run, and thanks for setting up/ inviting me into the September Challenge.

*hugs*

TMB – on Sept 8, I am running a 1/2 marathon..am I going to go over the weekly and if I do am I going to be booted out of the group. I think I have been avg about 15K a week before the last two weeks and I have been running about 25k to train for next Sat. Please let me know if this is going to get me booted. After I run next Sat I will probably go back down to 15 – 20K a week.

Thanks!!

Hey TMB,

Can you set me up on your new list. I have been looking into a few races late Sep into Oct and I would really like to increase my mileage. Especially since the guilt of my lazy behavior in Aug is getting to me. I am thinking that I might just barely go over your standard distance (maybe a bunch, depending on my motivation) but I wanted to ask all the same.

Cheers Man!

Comment on [Nike+] September Beginners Challenge by tmb

tmb — Fri, 31 Aug 2007 07:43:38 +0000

Just a quick note for everyone about the new and shiny Invincible List: As mentioned before some of us are training for the Einstein Marathon (running either 10k or 21k). Others like Mel have been running with us and increased their milage slowly beyond the weekly limit. Now most of those still wouldn't make the intermed challenges, so here's the grey zone in between! If you have been running with us for a while and want to increase your milage you may ask nicely to be exempt from kicking (post comment here, so it's public). This will be decided on a personal basis given you provided adequate reasons. Don't get me wrong: this is still a beginners challenge. Mainly to keep off those confused pros killing beginners for sport. I also reserve the right to take anyone off the IL again (remember: in these challenges I am root and god combined ;). I just don't want to hinder anyone that's been with us for months to progress. So here it is, I'm open for discussion! cheers, -tmb ps: The list may get renamed into something like »intermed-aspirant-list« as soon as I have something that sounds decent and official enough ;)

I invites everyone (who uploaded at least one run) from this month to the September Challenge. I also added the limit-indication (greyed out names) which I’ve forgotten before I went on holidays. Of course I won’t kick anyone now that the month is almost over.

Let’s get back to running (ok, I’m talking to myself ;)

Hey TMB I just checked out your site. Even though it was in German, I saw that you play VB, Rock Climb and have a D200. I have an even greater respect for you now. If you are ever in Utah, USA and want to go climbing, play VB, or do a photo shoot let me know. Congrats on winning the VB tourney. Let me know when you will be able to add me on the challenge. I think Gizzimo156 also is waiting to be added. Thanks for the challenge.

hey you all,
sorry for the late start. i’ve been swamped with work during the week and gone climbing during the weekends. Invites to everyone that applied in the forum will go out tonight, so please bear with me one more day.

@Aimee & Bosstjanz: I’m really sorry if those »beginners« somewhat spoil the challenge. If I catch them (ie. if I have the time to maintain the challenge) I usually kick them right away. As long as I’m out of town all I can say is: enjoy your runs – pick someone that seems to be running in about the same league and don’t worry about the rest. I do feel like I have to apologise, but there is really nothing I can do about it. It’s great to have you back though!

I would’ve sworn I requested this at the Nike+ site, but I have not yet been invited. I imagine you are out and about climbing mountains. :) If you get a chance to shoot me an invite, I’d appreciate it.

I also have a few things to add to what Bosstjanz said. One month, I was cruising along nicely, having a very nice competition with mns333 (I think that was her handle… I hope she’s in my bracket again this month!) and then the last day some clown finally syncs his nano and shoots over us by 30 miles (and going way over the max). He claimed something about being away for two weeks, but I still though it was cheap.

So, Bosstjanz, I really understand what you mean. I hope I am in your bracket too.

@Echojuliet:

Totally agree! Nike+ give me support on getting more and more km’s. As I wrote in August comments, I won’t compete any more, because…. http://blog.vimagic.de/2007/07/24/august-beginners-challenge/#comment-18264

But still let’s run together no matter where you are. As I said, I have luck to have more time to run. That’s why I went into grey area.

I don’t know who actually “win” this challenge: is it Dennis L. , kpb704 or all, who ran over 50km’s and try much more harder!

Keep good work and see you in August challenge.

Comment on [Nike+] August Beginners Challenge by Bosstjanz

Bosstjanz — Wed, 01 Aug 2007 06:55:27 +0000

add me to!

And for july’s challenge:
I am third on list and first on my nikeplus.com webpage… But…I have some opinion.

It’s very lonely at the top…
I think I’ll never run to win in some challenge any more. Why?

I think there are some runners, which are more “advanced” than beginners. I think they erase previous log (to see how many km’s they summarize), or just put last run for about 70m – just to hide previous run.
When I got informations how you can easily manually adapt (upgrade, alter,…) your runs, I was really sorry.

In July I had luck to run more than before, since my kids were at my friends place. I ran in the morning and in the evening, – but this is not valid rule, right? I ran over 5km per run too- not valid, though. So??

There is complete luck to “win” a challenge. Who wins: first at “green list” or first at all (grey one)?

In May, I was “in the middle of crush” (around 200 number) and it was really fun to run!!! I overtake one runner, and next day he/she overtaken me. If I meet her/him alive, I’ll greet him/her more than a winner…

…Just because we all run for ourselves, not just to win. To have support and motivation during runs.

I salute to all runners “in the middle”: they work much more harder than others. They are not “lazy bastards”, and they are not also competitors. They make run fun.!!!

Keep good work tmb and keep an eye on rules for next challenge!

bosstjanz, Slovenija

I may not be running much in August, maybe not at all, seeing as it seems as though I may have a stress fracture in my foot from July’s efforts. ;)
But, hey, on the off chance that I can recover a bit, could you sign me up for the August challenge too. I’ll learn to walk on my hands if necessary.
Keep up the great work.

Comment on [Nike+] July Beginners Challenge by echojuliet

echojuliet — Tue, 31 Jul 2007 14:57:40 +0000

Well done on reaching your goal, Zolla. Like you, I didn’t think I could get to 120km a month either, but these challenges certainly add that extra motivation that is sometimes needed.
I see your point about the cap being exceeded, especially this week. tmb was right to allow a 1km ‘landing zone’ at the cap, so that the 128km cap at week 4 means that you can do somewhere between 128 and 129kms, simply so that you don’t have to stop running midstride just to avoid going over the cap. Clearly, however, some people have really exaggerated. These last three days of July can be looked at as a new week, so you can do another 32km maximum, taking the total allowed to 160kms, 161kms with the landing zone included. 169kms and 188kms are clearly over-stepping the mark. But hey, who cares. As tmb stated at the very beginning of this challenge, “if you’ve come here to ‘win’ this challenge, you’ve come to the wrong place”. And that’s right.
These challenges are about motivating us to go beyond what we, as individuals, thought we could acheive, which is especially important for a beginner. You did that, so you can be very proud.
How far and how fast you go are only secondary to the fact that you simply get your Nikes on, get out there and go.
Congratulations to all of you who reached your goals this month and thanks to tmb for all your work and for hosting such a great site.

Comment on [Nike+] July Beginners Challenge by Zolla

Zolla — Mon, 30 Jul 2007 12:45:42 +0000

My goal was to reach 120km/month and this challenge helped me a lot giving me motivation to run.
But in the last 2 weeks the cap has gone, and even if I’ve ever tried to land in the cap correctly, there always was someone on the top over the weekly cap.
I don’t care about this ’cause I’ve reached my goal (and I’ve never thought that I’m able to run 20 miles/week)!
I only feel a little demotivated about this..
Just my 2 cents, this page is a great work, much better than the flash pages in nike+ challenge (thanks tmb), but I also think everyone has a life to live so.. who cares :-)

Are we counting the last three days, 29/07 – 31/07, as a whole week, in which the max is 32 km? Thus one could finish with a maximum of 160km?

Getting back into this after a holiday and a broken toe ruined my ambitions of being kicked off the beginners in July!

Is there going to be an August challenge, I notice a lot of imitators, but no tmb challenge on the Nike+ site.

Comment on Ulmer Volksfest Feuerwerk by Jonathan

Jonathan — Sun, 22 Jul 2007 22:56:15 +0000

Klar hab ich einen… Hier mal eine Galerie von den Kölner Lichtern: http://www.pyro-constellation.de/bilder/koelner-lichter-2007.html

Ich versuche immer so belichten, dass halt ein ganzes Bild drauf ist. Nicht nur der Effekt an sich. Mit der Belichtungszeit hängt die Überbelichtung nicht so ganz zusammen. Eher damit, dass die Blende zu weit geöffnet war.
Denn die Sterne bewegen sich ja und bleiben nicht an einer stelle.. Deswegen kriegt man bei einer richtig gewählten Blende auch nur sehr schwer eine Überbelichtung hin.
Aber die Blende variiert natürlich auch immer, je nach Effekt. Bei Gold oder Blau z.B. hab ich teilweise Blenden von 8 bei ISO 50 und bei hellem Grün oder Rot eine Blende von 24. Kannst dir ja auch mal die Exif Daten der Bilder in der Galerie anschauen. Sollten alle enthalten sein. Wenn du noch fragen hast meld dich einfach per mail. Geht warscheinlich schneller ;)

66 Leute laufen mit … jeder ist im schnitt 122km gelaufen … 66 * 122 = 8052 … also 8052km ist die Gesamtstrecke, oder auf englisch “total distance”

Comment on [Nike+] Einmal um die ganze Welt by LaufPod

LaufPod — Mon, 16 Jul 2007 09:16:12 +0000

Ich versteh es nicht…

Active Members: 66 (so viel Leute Laufen mit)
Distance
p.act.member: 122.044 km (so weit sind wir alle zusammen schon gelaufen)
Distance
p.act.male: 120.611 km (so viel sind alle Männer gelaufen?)
Distance
p.act.female: 125.865 km (so viel alle Frauen??)

wenn ich dann aber Männer und Frauen zusammen zähle komme ich auf 242655km!!.

Und was bedeutet dan Total DIstance?? sehr merkwürdig aufgebaut..

Anyway I could use any motivation I could get so if possible I would like to join your challenge. This is my first challenge so I’m not 100% sure of the whole process.

tmb – I appreciate what you’re doing here, and I suspect most other participants do too. Keep up the good work! I may be getting close to exceeding the limit and getting kicked myself, but that’s OK, and if it happens I will understand why.

Comment on [Nike+] July Beginners Challenge by BQJ

BQJ — Sat, 07 Jul 2007 13:50:20 +0000

I may need to be kicked from this challenge. I just started running 6 weeks ago (98.14 mi so far since 5/25). I’ve been running with the dog and gradually increasing from mostly walking 3 miles – to today we (the dog and I) actually ran the whole 3 miles and I felt great. (The dog was pretty good, too!!!) If I didn’t have the dog with me, I’m sure I would have run at least another mile or so. I honestly felt like a “beginner” and didn’t think I would be running more than 20 miles/week when I signed up for this challenge. I’m pretty sure that I will definitely be over that mileage cap by the end of July. It certainly is not my intent to “blow away” the competition. If anything – keep on running guys and gals!! I absolutely HATED running for the pure sport of it until I got the Nike+ sport kit as a surprise gift. I thought it would just be fun to see how far I could walk the dog and burn calories…. but once I saw that average pace the competetive spirit kicked in. There was no way I was going to post a 17 minute average pace on a site dedicated to RUNNING!! Perhaps your next challenge should be worded that the individual should be working toward a goal of 20 miles/week by the end of the 4 week challenge. I’m ready to do some real training, I thought I was going to be a “casual” runner. I’VE GOT THE BUG!!.

If you don’t mind, perhaps I could run one more week and then we can decide? I easily ran 32 K this week.

Beth J. aka BQJ

Shesh, why do people always complain about getting kicked, or about others not getting kicked? Just have fun ppl! Heh, wish I was good enough to get kicked. Well, actually I just wish I was good enough to improve my other sport (sport climbing). But having fun and getting motivated is what matters most.

Great work organizing these challenges tmb, and cool alpine pics!

Comment on [Nike+] July Beginners Challenge by tmb

tmb — Thu, 05 Jul 2007 20:32:38 +0000

@Zolla: the first two that were past the weekly cap were still within the challenge because I actually do have a life beyond Nike+ ;) I was gone climbing for a couple hours just now. All this being a one man show it usually takes till I get back to check the progress of everybody to enforce the cap. hope this makes sense :)
as to the greyed out names: if you check above you’ll see a per second precise calculation of how far you are allowed to run, were you to run continuously 24/7. Basically it gives a visual estimate of whether you are above or below the allowed distance as of now. Given that I won’t kick until you exceed the weekly cap, this has more informational value.

Comment on [Nike+] July Beginners Challenge by Zolla

Zolla — Thu, 05 Jul 2007 17:55:12 +0000

Hi,
I’m really enjoying the challenge, I’ts not so easy to reach 20 miles/week for a beginner, but I’m trying..
You’re motivating my runs :-)
I got a question:
Why the first 14 has grayed and the number is in bracket, and why the first 2 who has passed the week cap are still in the top of the list?
I’ have looked for a legend that explains to me this, but I didn’t found :-D
Thanks and keep up the great job!!!

tmb — Thu, 05 Jul 2007 14:20:10 +0000

Servus, that post was hilarious - i wish you had posted it to the blog for everyone to read. a couple quick answers though, before you go pouting about: 1.) i've been doing these challenges for a while now. and most people from april, may and june are coming back each month, because I *do* not only play by the rules, but enforce them as well. 2.) had you read the blog posts you would have know, that the limit is indeed 32k+1k. in may we had someone running 32.001k in the first week. was i supposed to kick? no - I exercised a bit of charity and decided that with 32k being the cap, we might as well have another k buffer for people to land in. it's been like that for 3months now. it's been expressed before and had you paid attention, you might have noticed that I wasn't the first to hit 32+eps km without being kicked. 3.) lets have another look at the history of my monthly standings: - June: 286th - May: 29th - April: 12th yeah - I'm kicking everyone that's giving me competition - rigourously - no exceptions ... LOL ! BTW, I don't expect to be in the top10 this month either. For me it doesn't really matter (or would I keep doing organising these challenges just to continuously »loose«), it's for fun. as stated numerous times, I'm doing other sports and only run to stay in shape for my mountaineering. Winning or not: I'll be running 120k this month! HOAH! 4.) one final [more serious] note: I'm sorry if you feel like I wronged you in some way. you exceeded the limit and that's it. a simple "sry, ya all - I was put on new drugs but it won't happen again next week" would have been sufficient - that is - any explanation why I should have kept you in the challenge would have done the trick. But honestly, don't you think this challenge is a bit below you? you seem to have exceeded the limit easily (within 3 days) - hence it's save to assume you could run even more in the next 4 days before the first week is over. Don't you think you are better of in some challenge for more experienced runners? 5.) you did read the part in the challenge description, where it says "if you want to win this, you are wrong here"? just making sure... all that said, I think I'll actually do post all of this to the blog. it might answer some question other might have as well. cheers, -tmb ps: in all honesty - I am open to any criticism. so do feel free to express yourself. I know the leader gets flamed in each competition... just bring it on!

Hey…it’s not nice to boot everyone who’s beating you in a challenge out of it. According to guidelines all challengers are supposed to be under 32K a week, and you’re at 32.949. I was barely over with 33 something and you kicked me out? I understand if I had run a significant amount more than everyone else, but I definitly didn’t. I’m not posting this on the blog page because I don’t think you should remove yourself from your own challenge…it would be nice though if you played by the same rules you want me too and enjoy a little healthy competition instead of removing anyone who’s beating you. Is it really winning if you remove the only people from it who give you any competition?

@Brett: this is a most distance challenge for Novices / Beginners. Hence there's a 20mi / 32k weekly cap. For more details see the complete description. @LiveFree777: thanks for the feedback. you might want to read all of this and this - just so you know we've been over all of this... a brief summery: 1.) this challenge is a motivational challenge for novices & beginners* 2.) strong runners don't motivate weak runners - at least not the majority of whining beginners. 3.) you may notice, that the cap used to be 25k per week - it got raised last month to bridge the gap to lower intermediates. I will not raise it any further this month. 4.) this challenge is NOT supposed to keep you from running. you said yourself, that you are in plenty other challenges that motivate you. by all means: keep running! I will promote you out of here, to keep the peace with in this challenge. One beginner (Mckeywest) dropped out already because he was intimidated by the strong runners among us (see here). Obviously you are a stronger runner than you though when you applied. There's plenty intermed challenges out there. Run all you've got there. hope this clears things up a bit cheers, -tmb *) anyone running less than 32k per week

I think all beginners with less than 100 miles at the start of the challenge should not be kicked out. Take me for example: I ran 80 miles total in 7 months. I found several challenges and I feel motivated like never before. I already ran 18 miles this month. This is great and it should not be discouraged.

Hey everyone! I’m a 33 yr old female on my way down from 270 lbs, currently at 215 lbs. This challenge is so motivating to me, I love seeing my ID up there. It’s great to watch all those miles we’re adding up!

@tmb: Dude! With a 120km this month, you’ll really be pushing the limits. I have some doubts about being able to find enough time to plough through quite that many Ks but when you throw down the gauntlet like that,… a dude’s gotta try.
@ElinR: which is exactly the point, ElinR; you’re right on. This whole Nike+ thing, in conjunction with people like tmb who are willing to dedicate their time and put their skills to work to create great sites like this one, gives you that extra spark of inspiration that gets one up off one’s behind and gets one out there, regardless of how fast or slow one goes. After all, Nike has been saying it for years: Just Do It.

Great running to one and all.

Hi.
The May and June challenges put me through my first training program EVER!!! I’m still not very fast, but at least I get out there and that’s the point. Please sign me up for the July challenge as well. It will be extra challenging as I will be traveling a bit this month, but there will also be lots of new trails to discover for me. Thanks!

@Daxoo: great to have you back in July as well. To your question: I guess when it comes to running in these challenges I'm not not resentful. My monthly running distance varies greatly (40k in March, 87k in April, 100k in May, 56k in June). Some of those who reapplied said they wouldn't be running as much this month. Other said, they would like to participate for as long as they are within the limits. To my mind everyone is welcome, as long as they don't mind to be "promoted out of here" if they are too strong a runner. By the way: my goal this month is 120k - so beware everyone :)

I will do my best in the next one if there is one, I didn’t received any invitation yet.

If I still improve like I did in the last month, I will probably be kiked out which is my goal to be promote as an intermediate runner.

Thank you, for your information I had a lot of fun, and I’m improving really fast, I’m almost adicted, it was only suggestion but I know they should be adress to the Nike+ programmer. I though maybe you have access to them as an organiser, and your challenge are really the most original I’ve run into, with your web page and merging so many small group challenge into a big one.

Congratulation.

I was simply desapointed because I was miss informe be the Nike+ web site, they write that the challenge end at 10pm and it was over before that time.

Noting personal with you.

Keep going your wonderful job.

“I bet you can figure it out by yourself, but it just ain’t July”

Well, I can now, yes! But I deliberately left my Friday run until Saturday because I thought it was July 1st! It wasn’t until I realised everyone on here was still on zero that I realised it was still June. That’s what being on holiday does for you. BUT…. you made me get off my butt today too, and God only knows when I last ran two days running. It was 1990-something! So thanks…. I guess! ;O)

Hey Daxoo,
everybody’s got the same amount of time to run the challenge. my being in what you president called “the old Europe”, the challenges started 00:00 June 1st and Ended 23:59 July 30th CET. I can’t modify those times as they are given by the Nike+ System. Time zone are tricky in global challenges, I’m sorry you had to find out in this challenge.
hope you still had some fun,

It would be nice if we could have some extra time after the end of the challenge to sync our last run, like 24h. just a suggestion.

Comment on [Nike+] June Beginners Challenge by Daxoo

Daxoo — Sun, 01 Jul 2007 02:29:34 +0000

wow! I just notice that my last post was written on the 30 June at 22h20 EST and it’s stamp 1 july at 4h20 we have 6h deffirence what is you time zone? that is probably the reason, but it would be nice if we could see the time zone on the Nike+ web site, I know you do not have anyting to do with it but maybe you can talk with some guy at nike about it as a organiser.

Dax.

P.S. I’m not sure I should write those issue here but I did.

Comment on [Nike+] June Beginners Challenge by Daxoo

Daxoo — Sun, 01 Jul 2007 02:20:47 +0000

I don’t understand???? on my nike+ web page it was writting, that the challenge end up today a 10pm, and when I got home at 9h45pm the challenge was already completed, so my run of this morning could not be registred, whit that run I would be first insted of 2nd.

Also I only sleep 5h last nigh to run this morning and it’s not regestred, I’m really desapointed. can you explain my how it work, if we do a challenge for the month it should be for the full month at less. Start on 1st of the month at 00h00am and finish on the last day of the month at 11h59pm.

Thank and keep doing your fantastik work.

TMB

First, the challenge has really helped me. I have never done 20 miles/week on my own. Is there a cap for the last two days of the challenge. If the last check is June 28 I was just curious on what the overall cap for the challenge was since it ends on June 30? Once again, thanks for doing this.

Comment on [Nike+] June Beginners Challenge by tmb

tmb — Sat, 23 Jun 2007 13:41:10 +0000

@Pat_UK: catching up is specifically encouraged. So give it your best. As to the definition of the week: the cap always count's the the 7th, 14th, 21st and so on. So the next one would be the 28th with 128k being the current max till then.

Comment on [Nike+] June Beginners Challenge by Pat_UK

Pat_UK — Sat, 23 Jun 2007 12:13:46 +0000

tmb – is the max distance for this challenge based on 30 days or 30 days +1?

Comment on [Nike+] June Beginners Challenge by Pat_UK

Pat_UK — Sat, 23 Jun 2007 06:57:21 +0000

Hi tmb – as I joined this challenge after the beginning of June is it OK if I exceed 32km this/next week as long as I don’t exceed the current max? And is the weekly limit as per my local definition of a week (in my case starting on Mondays)?

This will be my last beginner challenge if you know of any that are good that are the next step up I would be very grateful. Cheers for the motivation great site ! Hope I can stay in for June.

My i-Pod locked up during a 4.5 mile run last week and I lost all of the data from that run. I would like to be able to make those miles up with out being booted. The training program that I am on has me running more than 20 this week and in subsequent weeks. I hope you will allow me to remain in the challenge at least for another week. I’m still well behind the leaders. I’ll understand if you have to boot me. Rules are rules but I’m not a ringer joining a beginners challenge to win the trophy. I only began running in March at the age of 41. I am a beginner by any standard but I’m very motivated and I enjoy the challenges. Thanks.

@Padaji: ich weiss auch nicht was da schief gelaufen ist. Habe jetzt Dein Passwort per Hand zurück gesetzt und Dir per Mail zukommen lassen. Das Einrichten mache ich gerne, schick mir einfach die login-email und Dein nike+ passwort per mail zu.

ps: so schnell bin ich nicht genervt ;)

@tmb – fürchte, du wirst genervt sein, aber ich wollte mich auch auf diesen Seiten hier anmelden, da ich die Übersicht total klasse finde. Leider kriege ich aber die Mail mit dem Passwort nicht. Verstehe ich gar nicht … hab’ extra den Spam gründlichst kontrolliert … aber … nichts … :-( … habe dann versucht, über die Option mit dem vergessenen Passwort “ans Ziel” zu kommen … aber … nichts … :-( … grundsätzlich müssen meine Daten aber erfasst sein, da ich mich nicht erneut anmelden kann.

Ob ich mich wohl dem Wunsch von eMKay anschließen und dich ebenfalls um die Einrichtung bitten dürfte? Und falls du einverstanden bist – wie lasse ich dir meine Daten zukommen? Ich komme ja nicht mal selber ran.

Schon jetzt ein dickes DANKE!

@chelsea1968: hey mark, don’t worry! I decided not to kick after the third week. anybody that’s been patient enough to run below his level to kick it up now deserves the victory. And I’m glad that people get better by these challenges, because that’s what they are for! So pump it up and run all you got! I’m sure going to try to catch you – but as the weather is getting better, I spend most of the time either climbing or playing beach volleyball (most days doing both ;). Maybe I’ll get up early enough these days to do some morning runs?

@Stylander: the names in bold are friends of mine, who are trusting enough to give me their login/password. There’s no other way to access all the data you find on their respective user page. If you want to, I’ll set one up for you as well (eMail me your login eMail and password). I’ve been thinking about implementing the “last run infobox” like on the Nike+ forum site (which works w/o login/password), but haven’t gotten around to it yet.

@henkloop I’m not quite sure how to answer your rather philosophical question… but maybe you are just fishing for compliments, so here we go: good job champ, you are the current number one.

cheers,

ps: maybe this one will help: there’s a caching of one hour (note the “caching in xyz s” above), so your run might not show up right away. just be patient ;-)

Hey tmb
I am going away to France for a break next week and was wondering if there is any way I am able to upload my runs away from my computer. I am not back until after the 31st so will miss getting my final runs counted towards the challenge.

The only other thing is to run my little legs off next week as long as you don’t kick me and hope that that is enough to stay in the top ten which is all I am striving for at this point.

Hi tmb,
I’m Max (madmax70 my ID on Nike+) I’m writing you to ask if you have noticed that external pages integrating Nike+ challenges (mine is here : http://maxlazzari.110mb.com/ ) are not working anyore since last night Nike+ site maintenance… I’m no more able to retrieve challenge data from Nike+ server… Are you experiencing something similar?

I’m investigating on this: it sounds strange cause if I use the URLs directly in my Browser Address Bar the system works well but using the URLs in a script (PHP my case) is doesn’t work anymore.

Here are URLs I use, I guess you are doing something similar:

To authenticate:
1) https://www.nike.com/nikeplus/v1/services/widget/generate_pin.jhtml?login=$username&password=$password

To retrieve challenge info once I’ve been authenticated:
2) https://www.nike.com//nikeplus/v1/services/app/get_challenge_detail.jhtml?id=1015569978

Should I find something I’ll get back to you, please if you find a solution just let me know…

Cheers, Max

Welcome to the June Beginners!

This is a motivational challenge – if you want to win this, you might be wrong here. There is a weekly cap of 20mi/32km which I will enforce by promoting better runners to the intermediates level (=kicking from this challenge). Of course you won’t get kicked for running more in one week to make up for a late start or if you ask (politely) beforehand. I’ve increased the cap slightly to catch some of those poor “in between beginner and intermediates”

cheers,
-tmb

Comment on [Nike+] May Beginners Challenge by tmb

tmb — Mon, 14 May 2007 14:43:29 +0000

@Koalalou: As this is a “most distance” challenge you are quite right – speed is secondary. I specifically accept any walkers if they do not exceed the weekly limit. I’d say currently you should worry about being kicked. This week is over as far as I’m concerned so the current cap is 75k. By the way (and this is an announcement for everybody)

I won’t kick in the final week.

So for those that are desperately in need for an ego boost, constrain yourself one more week and then give ‘em all you got in the final ten days to win your subchallenge ;-)

Comment on [Nike+] May Beginners Challenge by Koalalou

Koalalou — Mon, 14 May 2007 13:24:19 +0000

I am a little confused after reading the criteria you listed for Novice, Beginners etc. I kind of straddle the Novice, Beginner, in that I run under five miles each run and probably run almost 7 days a week but my pace is much more of a novice at around 10.30 average. But I guess for the Challenges you need to clock up the miles and pace is secondary.

I guess I will be excited to get kicked as it means I am more of an intermediate runner, which is all positive. Thanks TMB for all the hard work you have put into providing the challenge. It has certainly got me motivated as I was running maybe once or twice a week and now run everyday. That has to be good!

accuracy is a thing I stopped worrying about. most times the ipod of my running buddy showed more k’s than mine did, but lately things seem to have changed (last time we had a 500m difference on a 10k run to my advantage :) It’s all about your stride length. as the last run she was lagging a bit I think I was doing smaller steps for her to catch up and hence the difference. If I do speed runs I have to run more (=my iPod shows less than the actual distance) than on slow paced long runs. And there’s nothing calibration can do about that.
cheers,

ibmike,
I use the nike ipod armband and can’t imagine running without it now! V comfortable and easy to use. I’d say it’s sweat proof and can maybe manage a light shower but not rain proof. Don’t know of any armbands that are. If you want to check the callibration of your sensor you could compare it to the map it feature on nikeplus – my distances via the sensor vary a bit depending on speed but have found it to be accurate enough for me!

ibmike — Sat, 12 May 2007 12:28:07 +0000

hi,

I’d appreciate any answers to one or all of these questions:

(1) does anybody use special “sports-earphones”? the original ones from apple seem to fall out of my ear every now and again. if someone can recommend good (though cheap) earphones suitable for running, I’d appreciate it…

(2) by the way: do you use something like a “ipod-sports-armband” (for example to protect your ipod when it rains) – I read about the Nike-Ipod-armband, but looking at the picture makes me doubt whether this one is water-resistant or not…

(3) am I correct in thinking that using a “pulse watch” would interfere with the nike-sensor (I guess both of them are transmitting in the same free ISM frequency band)? Or does anybody successfully use both systems at once?

(4) how accurate are your sensors? have you tried running the same track more than once and compare the computed distances? unfortunately, although I have calibrated my sensor over 2k, I think that my sensor differs from time to time (about up to max. 200 m over 4 km)

thx in advance,
ibmike

hey ladyczymbor,

there’s different challenges: for example those challenges w/elimination are very competitional – it’s about winning. this challenge is different – it’s ONLY about motivation. If it helped you pushing you as far as you got that’s good – no it’s excellent. The problem is, that some runners (f.e. those how have managed ONE km this first week) might get discouraged by runners who do too well. For some reasons even those have some funny ideas about winning (it’s not only the pros that seem to forget it’s only about MOTIVATION). nuf said.

as a peace offering to all those that got promoted out of here: I looked up the URL to the Nike+ forums posting to one of the “I’m too good for the May Beginners challenge” challenge:
http://forums.nike.com/thread.jspa?threadID=4969

Sad that i got booted, I thought i was doing really well and that was the idea to push yourself but
i guess like you said in you previous postings the whining beginners can be a bit much. So a posting for
all those fellow runners booted too soon and wanting to continue someone start an intermediate (since we arent beginner) or jump into a challenge before the month gets a way from you!

Hi tmb,

I must say, I’m very disappointed to wake up after uploaded my Relay miles to find I’ve been kicked from the challenge. I told you before the challenge even started that I would be participating in an event this weekend (The Relay, to raise money for organ donation) that woud earn me big miles. You said it would be fine. As someone who has only been running for about 6 weeks now, at most, the Relay was a huge challenge for me, and I was very proud to have completed it. Again, I am very disappointed to have pushed myself to the limit, as challenges often call for, and, as a result, to be expelled from this challenge.

@mingistech: I know you are pissed because now you can’t boost you’re ego by winning a challenge that’s totally below your level of running, but I’m still going to answer this for the off-chance that you’re actually serious with that last hilarious post:
by all means, run, run, run as far as you can – but don’t apply for a 25k/week-max challenge if you easily run 43k in 5days.

sorry folks that I couldn't respond any sooner.

here're some (short) answers (in reverse order): @supermac:: the cap is 25k in 7days which you did exceed. @DDZM1: you did not? I honestly couldn't say, why I kicked you than. I've kicked everyone with 26k or higher, if you have less so far and I kicked you by accident, leave another note. I'll re-invite you (which should also restore your miles run May so far - so no cheating ;) @Duguid06: you are currently on place 605 - just use the search website feature of your browser. @rambomarv: check comment #140 below for a quick run down on what you have to do to get rid of those forum mails. thanks for running with us - fun trash talk comments :) @Arlene: I'm thinking about increasing the weekly limit with the June Beginners - so maybe we'll see you there? I'll probably start taking applications this week. did I miss anyone? BTW: excellent first 6days - 8000km the first week for a beginners challenge - this is amazing!!! cheers, -tmb

feel really bad about being kicked from the may challenge this is my first ever goal i have had at running and was pushing myself hard to try and get to the top spot i do believe i am a beginner and thought this challenge was great for me as i am doing 8.5 miles for charity in the edinburgh marathon relay team and was just trying to push myself so i didnt disapoint any of the people who had put sponsorship money down for me anyway was agreat challenge while it lasted and looking forward to running again with u guys.ps can anyone tell me how to get rid of all the emails that i am getting from the forum

I too would like to congratulate tmb for all the time and effort put into this challenge. I would also like to apologize if I’ve stepped on anyone’s toes! I honestly considered myself a beginner since I had gone a year without running and I never imaged I would just pick it right back up. Tmb..if you end up kicking me off this challenge I consider it an honor. It actually makes me feel good about myself….that I haven’t lost the athlete in me!! So thank you so much for a wonderful and motivating 1st challenge!! Good luck to all the other runners may you find the happiness and joy I have found in running!

Hi there

I see on May Day beginners I sneaked the top spot tonight. Just under 15 miles as Ive stepped up my duration of runs steadily in the 4 weeks ive been running.

Just wanted to echo tmb’s sentiment – I’m really really enjoynig running for longer and my wife disagrees that I should call myself a beginner. I meant no representation. As tmb said – I too would like to continue running but if I breach the rules I fully expect you to act accordinlgy.

Its been a brilliant 4weeks running and my first challenge experience has been great this week.

Thanks for having me for the time I’ve been here – good luck to the true beginners – somehow I managed to step up my runnning from 2 miles at 8″10 a mile to a 12k today at 7″36.

I’m looking to get a few 10ks under my belt so that’ll keep the motivation. About 8 or 9 years ago I did a half marathon after doing little training – I was dreadful and the van picking up the cones from the road tidying up after the race followed me in. I got overtaken by the people in comedy suits and the army guys carrying someone on a stretcher. Oh and also the oldest female runner – in her 70s I believe – now that Im training – thats my motivation to do a bit better than that!

Thaks again and good luck everyone.

Hey TMB, I am getting every single thread from the discussion page to my school email. How can I change that? Another thing, thanks for putting this together, I love it! Also, I work full time and go to school full time as well, I can’t run every day….so I dont think I can’t do 25k/week =( thats about 15miles per week, so to make this happen i would have to run every day at least 3mi!!!!

This is my first challenge and I am loving it, but im a little confused….I am also trying to learn more about how to run, how to increase endurance and all that, is 1 mile run time between 7:00 and 9:59 considered “pace”?

pls let me know
thanks =)

Comment on [Nike+] May Beginners Challenge by jasoutside

jasoutside — Fri, 04 May 2007 12:39:41 +0000

Hey tmb – couple of quick thoughts and couple of quick encouragements…

Thought 1. This is your challenge, you made the rules! If I, or any other runner for that matter, am grumpy about what you set up here we have the ability to withdraw with a couple of quick clicks of the mouse. You could have made any stipulations you wanted (running every other K backwards if you wanted to). If I am not willing to follow the rules of the game that is my issue, not yours! Again, if I don’t like the way you have set things up I can just as easily set up my own challenge with rules i do like, or, just join a different challenge.

Thought 2. If you end up booting me from this challenge because I am running to far I would be honored! I am pretty confident that won’t happen to me (kinda fat – kinda slow – but I am trying). But, if I was booted I might just as well say THANKS TMB! I would be feeling pretty good that I am not a beginner (at least by your standards).

Encouragement 1. Thanks a bunch for putting this challenge together! It is fun and helps me to be a better athlete! You have obviously put a fair amount of your time into setting this thing up and maintaining it. You are also doing your best to keep everybody happy (can’t be done, but great effort). So, THANKS!

Encouragement 2. Well done in enforcing the rules. In todays day and age there seems to be an exception to everything and anything goes! It seems like we have no problem turning a blind eye to stuff that shouldn’t be happening. You made the rules and your sticking to them, sweet! I know it would be far easier to just let everyone do what they want so thanks for your diligence! (I know, maybe a be too philosophical for a silly running challenge.)

Cheers Man!!

nur zur Anmerkung @tmb: letztes WE standen die zwei Langen auch nicht hinten… Wer ist denn dein Stammtisch-Experte?

Bezüglich Aufstellung enthalte ich mich der Stimme. Ich bin flexibel. Mal schauen, ob sich dann die Hintermänner nicht beschweren, dass sie gar keinen Ball mehr kriegen, weil die Mauer steht ;-)

Bezüglich Läufersystem, da weiß auch noch nicht, wie weit mein Handgelenk da mitspielt. Hat heut schon zweimal richtig geknackst. Entweder ist das Gelenk wieder drin oder völlig im …

Apropos darf auch Annika und Don im agressiven Fall mal MB spielen. Und wer dann den Punkt macht, Don oder tmb, falls die Annahme oder das Zuspiel nicht kommt, das sehen wir dann auch.

habe beim Mittag noch einmal mit meinen (Stammtisch-)Experten gesprochen und dabei sind zwei Dinge herausgekommen:
- never change a winning aufstellung
- wer 25:0 spielen will, muss aggressiv aufgestellt sein
ausserdem kann dann francois auch fotografieren ;) deswegen stimme ich steffen bei und gebe mein votum der aufstellung “aggressiv” (zumindest so lange wir nicht massiv eins auf die Mütze bekommen, wenn die beiden langen hinten sind, aber das haben letztes WE auch nicht…)

Comment on [Nike+] May Beginners Challenge by ibmike

ibmike — Fri, 04 May 2007 11:32:23 +0000

hey guys,

I have to strongly support tmb’s vision – everybody could read the intended maximum limit per week in advance, and if you guys can easily manage to exceed this limit –> my congratulations – but you should really see it as an promotion, so please advance to any intermediate challenge (or if you prefer calling it “slightly advanced beginner” or whatever)!
The thing is, that those people marked in grey are really no beginner’s at all (or novices, as referred to the classification below) – nothingtheless, there are plenty of runners among us in this challenge, who are real beginner’s, and for whom this challenge is perfectly intended.

just my two cents…
so keep on runnin’ (preferably in everybody’s appropriate challange)

Comment on [Nike+] May Beginners Challenge by tmb

tmb — Fri, 04 May 2007 11:14:26 +0000

That skill listing was intended to justify the 25k limit and to counter the whining novices on this challenge. I'm not quite sure what your point is Paddy? Please elaborate - do you want me to kick everyone right away? Or do you want me to ignore the explicitly stated weekly maximum altogether? Or do you just want to vituperate a bit for no reason at all?

Beginner

Distance:
- Runs less than 5 miles on average at one time
- Runs 3 to 5 times a week

Speed:
- 1 mile run time between 7:00 and 9:59

Most people who have been grayed out fit into this category.

Nach 2x drüber schlafen glaube ich, dass beide Aufstellungen gleichwertig sind.
Ich finde die “agressive” Aufstellung aber reizvoller, insbesondere die
Startaufstellung. Daher mein Votum.
(btw wer sagt, dass wir für das 2. Turnier die Aufstellung beibehalten müssen)

Comment on [Nike+] May Beginners Challenge by tmb

tmb — Fri, 04 May 2007 07:56:13 +0000

@Paddy T: The way I see it, if there are rules you might as well judge by them. Otherwise there's no need for them. For god's sake keep running! These challenges are supposed to motivate - and motivation is a tricky thing, you need a more or less homogeneous group for everyone to profit. If you get "kicked" here think of it as a promotion, for you are considered good enough to participate on the intermediate level. @karen_ng: I won't kick if you run 25k the first day and not for the rest of the week - though that's hardly a beginners routine either ;) With the June challenge I'll impose additional "per run" limits - but so far you are free to run within the 25k/week - limit @javierramos: "90k in the first for weeks" are less than the 25k per week in May (which would total to a 100k+ per month). I would strongly argue against your point that 10k is a good starting point for beginners. Ask any of those (true) beginners that will total 10k per week and you'll see, that they dream about running 10k per session. The training schedule you refer to, is for people that want to run the 10k fast and not those, that only want to survive 10k per week. Back to the problem at hand: in the end this is just theoretical stuff. The imposed limit of 25k was arbitrarily set by me (based on what I run, want to run and the moon phase the day I breathed life to this challenge). Anyone that applied for this challenge was aware of the limit (or should have been aware). If ppl are such bad judges of their own capabilities they shouldn't complain when I correct their poor evaluation of their running skills and promote them out of the beginners state. I'm open for thanks anytime. You should remember this is for fun (that goes for both sides). Addendum: Here's a pretty cool definition of the skill levels (from iworkoutnow.com)

Novice Distance:
- Runs 3 times a week or less
- Runs less than 3 miles on average at one time Speed:
- 1 mile run time of 10:00 minutes or more only!

Beginner Distance:
- Runs less than 5 miles on average at one time
- Runs 3 to 5 times a week Speed:
- 1 mile run time between 7:00 and 9:59

Intermediate Distance:
- Runs less than 7 miles on average at one time
- Runs almost every day Speed:
- 1 mile run time between 6:00 and 6:59

Expert
Distance:
- Runs 8 miles or more on average at one time
- Runs every day Speed:
- 1 mile run time of less then 5:59

The nike running program for 10 k beguinner training requres 90 km run in the first 4 weeks (18, 21, 24, 27 km), 124 km in the second 4 weeks (30, 27, 34, 33 km) and 130 km in the final 4 weeks of preparation (37, 39, 30, 24 km). Since 10k preparation is a good starting point for beguinners, ¿Why is the limit at 25 km per week? especially if those km are run at an average pace of 8’15″ per km.

I don’t think its a bad idea to grey out those whom don’t fit into the criteria you use to classify as beguinners, however, kiking them out seems a bit rude and extreme.

@Soifran: Nike+ only allows 100 runners per challenge. Hence I opened up quite a few "subchallenges" (called May Beginners I to X and May Beginners Late Entries I to V). My yet unreleased WordPress plug in fetches all these subchallenges from the Nike+ server, combines, sorts and finally displays them. If there is only 99 runners in your challenge, that's probably because someone got kicked out of your subchallenge. cheers, -tmb

There’s one point i’d like to understand. Why on the Nike+ website are we only 99 and here more than 500 ??!!! (by the way… GOOD JOB !!!)

@Bast: I've only kicked ppl that exceeded the 15mi for the challenge. Hence you are still there ;-) I just implemented the new design that greys out everyone that has run more than the daily share of (TIME_SINCE_START + ONE DAY ) * (15mi / 7), but I won't kick if you are still within the current weeks limit (15mi for the first week, 30mi for the second ...) Hope that makes sense. I thought this to be a good compromise between the whining beginners and the stray intermediates that got lost on this challenge. cheers, -tmb ps: @hammerbeck that's the attitude I like. I prefer ppl ahead of me as they motivate me more. just keep on running mate, if you exceed the limit I'll go by the kicking rules stated above, knowing you'll understand.

I guess I am one of the people causing so much irritation in this challenge. I noticed too late that there was a 25K/week limit. I considered myself a beginner because I have been running less than a year and because my average pace is greater than 10 minutes per mile (6:30/km or so).

Kick me off or don’t — I don’t really care. I’m not a competitive person. I’m just trying to have fun.

@MikeHillBass: I take it you are *Mikey B*? I just kicked you a second before I read that post. It might have made a difference, but you still had 30k 2days after the challenge started. The rules said not more than 25k per week, which you obviously exceeded quite easily. The thing is, these challenges should not make you stop running just to belong to this group. Keep running and I'm sure you'll catch up with the rest of the intermediates soon. For the sake of peace and harmony I stand by my decision. no offence meant! cheers, -tmb

I know I’m on the watch list to get kicked off..the challenge started 3pm March 30th for me and I ran right at 3pm that day to get a head start which meant that my run the next day got added to day 1 also. So it looked like I ran alot in one day but really its 2 days..so really im just a day ahead..I just started running and walking to start loosing weight and to change my lifestyle into a much healthier one..this challenge is actually getting me out there..I wouldn’t be as motivated if i didn’t..I’m on an itermediate challenger but the majority run twice or 3 times more then what I do..Its still early in the race any thing can happen..I’m not always going to have everyday to exercise..

Was mir an dem Bild nicht passt, ist das Yan und ich vertauscht sind. Wenn wir beide vorn sind sollte Yan stellen und dann müßten wir jedesmal erst die Position tauschen, was bei Annahme schlecht ist. Daher würde ich die Linke und Rechte Seite tauschen wollen, also:

S D Y
A M T

Zur Mr. X Alternative sollte Daniel/ Matze mal was sagen, vielleicht will er ja sogar bei Bedarf die Mitte mit Matze/Daniel tauschen können (oder auf keinen Fall)? Hätte halt auch den Vorteil, dass wir das zu 5/6 schon mal gespielt haben. Und wenn ich den Subtext richtig raushöre wäre Annika begeistert.

tmb — Wed, 02 May 2007 14:06:51 +0000

Der harte Kern hat gestern mit den letzten Dickmans schon ein paar Aufstellungen durchgesprochen. Dabei haben wir auch die von Dir zuerst genannte (siehe neuem Bild) mal komplett durchgesprochen und für gut befunden. Dabei hat sich Annika durchgesetzt, dass sie weiter Mitte spielt. Matze würde dann diagonal spielen und den gegnerischen Aussen besser unterbinden.

ABER

die Idee Matze als Mr.X einzusetzen finde ich gar nicht dumm…. Ich glaube das gefällt mir sogar fast noch besser.
hmmm

Wie machen wir denn die aufstellung mit Matze? Ich denke ja Matze als Mitte gegenüber von Daniel. Dann muss ich also da weg und könnte auf den freien Platz vom Mr. X. Das hätte auch den Charm, dass ich nicht mehr Läufer 5 Annahme spielen müßte (statt ich läufer 5, Yan Läufer 1). Allerding gäbe es dann in der Situation auch keinen Meter-Kopf mehr für tmb und das hatte ja gut gefunzt. hmmm….

Mal aufschreiben:
Yan Daniel Steffen
tmb Matze Annika

oder:
S D Y
A M T

oder:
A D T
S M Y

oder:
T D A
Y M S

Wir können das auch komplett vergessen und spielen mit Matze als Mr.X:

Y D M
T S A

Da macht auch unsere Startaufstellung richtig Spass mit dem großen Frontcourt, Annika kann weiterhin die 2. Mitte teilen und Thomas kriegt den Läufer 5 Ball.

Ich bin mir echt unschlüssig, gebt mal ne meinung.

I guess I’m more of a beginner than most. That was my 2nd run and 2.8k was just fine maybe i should up the distance, 3k maybe ;)

hi,

@tmb:
I was just wondering what you mean by “standard workout plan with 3runs a week, you usually have two short ones and one long one…” – did you refer to any specific workout plan that one could follow, and if so, where could one get that!? Or was that just an arbitrary assumption how one would possibly schedule its runs?

thx,
ibmike

tmb — Tue, 01 May 2007 11:14:33 +0000

@ filippo: please use the same name as your Nike+ ID so we know who’s talking. Currently the only restriction I imposed was not running more than 25k a week. If you look at your standard workout plan with 3runs a week, you usually have two short ones and one long one. With 10k being the long one you can do two 7k runs and still be within the feasible region. That’s why I didn’t kick those two running >15k per session (yet). If they don’t run anymore this first week they are still ok, even though I admit it might look suspicious to some – I think it’s rather pathetic if you have to sign up with the beginners to get your self-esteem up because you didn’t make it at the intermediate challenges.

I have a problem with 1…. having a Nike+ account in one name (~Arlene~) and 2…..when i go to the discussions its under a different name (swtRun69). Now, my challenges are in under the second name and when i go to log my runs in to my challenges they don’t because they go under my Nike+ name. All my running info is logged in my Nike+. I can only log on to the discussions under this name, and it has my challenges under swtRun69 and they wont sync there…so hmm ??? I have no idea as to what i did here, but when i try to fix it or register under my Nike+ name it doesn’t let me do anything or make changes. How, if there is a way, can i get this problem resolved?? Is this fixable? Needless to say this is very frustrating and sad. I think this sounds very confusing but I dont know how to explain it any other way.

@ Viviana: I can’t add the user “DIVAP” – have you spelled it correctly? remember that Nike+ is case sensitive. BTW: you only see the challenge on the pending challenges list, if you used the same email on the Nike+ website that you supplied in the forum..

@ Arlene: could you be a little more specific? otherwise it’s hard for the community to help you ;)

Ja wie ja was ? Die kleine Petze werd ich mir mal zur Brust nehmen. Und bezüglich VB ist das bestimmt nur gut. Dann bewegt sich wenigstens einer in unserem Team :p

Ich habe Beschwerden vernommen, nachdem du zu viel läufst. Im Hinblick auf dein VB ist es bestimmt auch nicht günstig.

Ich dachte Universal schließt Zuspieler aus, aber das ist nicht der Grund, warum ich das nicht geschrieben habe. Ich wollte explizit festhalten, dass wir in der Aufstellung wirklich *viele* Rollen übernehmen. Denn in der Tat stellst Du zu, spielst Aussen (wenn mit Annika am Netz) und Mitte (wenn Daniel und Annika hinten).

don — Mon, 16 Apr 2007 06:59:54 +0000

Aus Zusp./Außen/Mitte kann man auch Universal machen (oder fehlt da Diagonal?).

Jedenfalls errinnert mich das daran, dass es einen Fall gibt, indem “gut” und “schlecht” Synonyme sind. Oder wie mein Trainer immer zu mir sagte: “Du spielst auf allen Positionen gleich gut.” :(

die Daten werden direkt vom Nike+ Server geladen. Dadurch entstehen manchmal auch etwas Wartezeiten (je nach Auslastung der Server). Habe deswegen schon ein Caching eingebaut (1h), d.h. nicht wundern, wenn der letzte Lauf hier nicht sofort drin steht. Spätestens hier wäre das manuelle hochladen lästig:

also die Meterangaben sind, wie es bei Meterangaben nicht unüblich ist, Längenangaben - in diesem Fall für die Kletterlänge in der entsprechenden Route. Die Zahlen-Buchstaben-Kombinationen sind Angaben für die Schwierigkeit der Route. Die Skala fängt im ersten Grad an (für Routen, bei denen man gerade so die Hände zum vorankommen muss) und hört irgendwo zwischen Raufaser und nackten Stahlbetonwänden im elften Grad auf: In der Regel wird im Europäischen Raum entweder die UIAA-Skala oder die Französische Skala verwendet.

What I want to do on my blog, is every few hours take the oldest post and move it to the
front of the queue, all automatically. Anyone know if there is a plugin that can do this or
a simple way to set up another plugin to do this (use my own feed perhaps)?
Thanks.

Schicke, Schicke Pics. Das sieht ja schon einmal richtig klasse aus.

-das 3. letzte Bild, ich bin ja ganz überrascht. Von der Körperspannung und -haltung dachte ich zuerst: das ist ein klasse Angriff von Longo. Aber von der Aufstellung her kann das ja nur ich sein. Man könnte meinen, den Mittelangriff haben wir geübt ;) Ok, vielleicht ein bissel zu früh im timing, aber ansonsten ….

Does anyone know the name of the wordpress plugin that creates a list of your posts in a category instead of just displaying them one after the other? I want it so that when someone clicks on a category they just get a list of posts from that category.

I'm sure Ive seen one…and sifting through the WP site is a nightmare
