I got a new toy...

So my last contract with my cellphone provider expired last week (thank god) and I was going to wait for the next gen iphone, but after a buddy showed me the Xperia X10 I was sold...everyone has an iphone and I wanted something different...don't want to be a sheep. So far the phone is awesome...it's my first smartphone so I am having a TON of fun playing with all the apps and my favourite thing so far is the GPS. I took a hike yesterday and decided to give this app called My Tracks a try..it tracks your distance, speed, elevation and tracks your route, when you are done you can choose to upload it to google maps...very cool. here is my little hike yesterday.

Anyway I will spout out more about this camera in the future...I also hope to map out some of the local trails once I can ride again. Speaking of that...since I can't ride, I also bought some trail running shoes. Now...I friggin hate to run but after a month of not being able to ride I just need to get out to the trails again and I figure this will help with my fat ass too...starting slow (hiking) and then going to put more and more running in and break it in easy...wish me luck. Hopefully when I am able to ride again I will be in shape and ready to roll. 

Do you own a android phone and have a favourite app, if so leave the into in the comments, also any tips for a new trail runner..please comment...I need all the help I can get...lol.
