Run Yank Run

Welcome to my first ever multi-person episode of the podcast. Join me and Krister from the Running The Narrow Path podcast as we run through the Swedish forest and farm roads.
It was a fantastic trip and Krister and his family were wonderful hosts.

Krister going like the wind
Usually when podcasters try to record themselves and another person on a run, the other person is very quiet since the microphone is so far away. Well, I tried something different. I put a mic and the Nano on Krister and recorded myself in the usual way. I assumed that since both recording devices are digital, they would stay in sync once I linked them up in editing. No. They drift.
So every minute or so I needed to adjust a track by a couple of milliseconds to minimise phasing, etc. Lots of work but I think it paid off.
Also, the mic I gave Krister wasn't properly shielded from the wind.
But hey, lessons learned and I do think it was a good experiment. PLUS, nothing can take away from the fabulous trip and the great, peaceful runs Krister and I had.

Brrrr! It's rainy and cold... and it's AUGUST! Well, no matter, I head out for a 12 mile out-and-back heading west along the Thames. It was so wet that I was nervous about recording during the run, so I chat witcha during the rest stops.
I know I just put out ep 47 just a little while ago, but I've been enjoying running so much that I've been running pretty much every day and finally made the leap on two purchases and had to talk about 'em.
The first one is I decided to go ahead and get some new Nike Free's. But this time, I opted for the 3.0's which have almost half the sole of the 5.0's and it's a HUGE difference. I love them! Great ground feel and it's easier to keep up on the forefoot. I can tell my whole body is adjusting and can feel muscles in my legs, core, and even back are getting stronger. Good stuff.
The second is a 16GB silver iPad Nano. This thing is TINY. I can even clip it to the band on the back of my running cap and not even notice it. The biggest part of the decision was the fact that is records just like the iPhone. In fact, this episode was recorded on it. The picture below is a little bigger than actual size:
Lastly, we're coming up on the 50th episode of the Run Yank Run podcast! I can hardly believe it!

This episode was recorded during a 10 mile Sunday long run.
Big News! I finally moved into a place of my own. It's a one bedroom flat on the Chiswick High Street and I couldn't be happier.
Work, life, and finding and moving into an apartment have eaten into running since the previous podcast, but now that things have settled I am looking forward to running more consistently.
In preparation (and wishful thinking) for warmer months ahead I invested in the Inov-8 H2Orizontal 2L Hydration bladder that is made to fit the Inov-8 Race Pro running rucksacks. This was my trial run with it and I love how the water bladder ride low in the small of my back. Felt very balanced and I forgot it was in there!You can find me on:Email: [email protected]Twitter: pabrelatFacebook: http://www.facebook.com/pabrelatDailymile: http://www.dailymile.com/people/pabrelatBlog: http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/

Big announcement: we are moving back to the US. After three amazing years here in the UK, my job has ended and my visa will expire at the beginning of November, so we are packing it up all up and moving back. Probably not for good, we love it here in the UK and would like to stay here, but there simply hasn't been enough time to secure a new position that can sponsor a new visa in time.
I fully intend to continue this podcast and look forward to evolving it as things unfold.
Speaking of podcasts, be sure to head over to Krister's Running The Narrow Path podcast to check out his latest episode in which we run together in London for the Worldwide Festival of Races half marathon.
Krister and his family came to visit and we had a great weekend together exploring London.
So... that's the big news. It's been kinda crazy and there's so much to do in terms of packing, paperwork, etc, but I plan on getting at least one more episode out from England before we head back.
Thanks to everyone for your support and correspondence, it is always very much appreciated.
