I hammered down the trail, passing rocks and trees like they were standing still.
maybe you should look into one of those hats with the umbrellas, like Amy mentioned!
Be safe. Be kind.

I use plastic wrap, too. You might be able to wrap it so any opening is on the bottom (depending on where the earphone plugs in). Just don't use that sticky glad plastic wrap, I forget what it's called. It was pretty hard to get the adhesive off the unit afterwards. But do you really want to use an ipod during the race? I run all my training runs with an mp3 player but I haven't yet raced with one. But that's just me...
Running has given me the courage to start, the determination to keep trying, and the childlike spirit to have fun along the way - Run often and run long, but never outrun your Joy of running!

One day at a time
Got out this afternoon for a 7 miler. Plan was a nice and easy run, trying to keep a 9:30 pace. Got it done in 1:06:32, which averages out to a 9:31 pace, so I think I did ok there. I felt like I was running alongside a pastel coming back – the ocean a hazy purple, with a pale pink sky on the horizon that blended into a blue gray cloudy sky. Such subtle colors, yet so breathtaking. Then as we were did our U turn at the end of the run, what a surprise! The moon had snuck out behind us while we were running the back 3.5 miles. It was a good run.
