GPS Running

Running thru the evolution of GPS-enabled training

My team and I want to make running gps somewhat enjoyable. What can we do to achieve this?

Note: We have various school rules we must follow.

We are not allowed to:

Run without shirts

Run off campus

Run slow (GPS watches from coach)

iPods are frowned upon due to people not listening and going varius directions without the team

Our course has almost NO trees and gets very hot. We have one section with about 25-30 m of trees and it is a very steep trench like thing.

What sort of things can we do to make running more enjoyable?

Your coach has you gps’d? That rocks… wish I could afford that. Have you tried follow the leader (some call it leap frog)? How about running while exchanging shirts? And my personal favorite, most annoying sing-a-long (everyone gets to pick a song on the run and everyone else has to sing along).

    What my team does on the long boring runs is we just send one runner ahead and then we catch him then the next runner goes and catchs him then the next catchs him. its fun, keeps your mind off of running. Even though running itself is not too fun.

    Swap shoes!! It would be hilarious to try to run with different peoples’ shoes. That would kinda kill the point of jogging though….

    Mine?
