An afternoon in the park with Philip Glass
Tuesday, November 2nd, 2010 02:29 pmIn order to distract myself from limping kitty, I poked around on the interweb and found Endomondo, which has a free Android app that records distance / time / calories / elevation etc, shows you a little map of where you've been, and has optional 'encouragements from your friends', which of course I switched off.
A brief(ish) circuit of Coleridge Recreation Ground indicates that it is 0.54 miles per loop. Also, that running to Philip Glass (The Photographer) is considerably more Zen than running to the C25K podcasts, though it's less good for pacing and goals.
Am very glad that I did not spend money on pedometer. (Instead, I spent £2 on a belt pouch for my phone.)

Also, I need a belt pouch for my Tens machine, which is just a little bigger than a phone. Hmm...
