I am excited to use the Nike+ website as a means for staying motivated to run. I love the concept of building a virtual community of runners to keep us all motivated and in the game.
The first features I am using are:
- Uploading my runs onto the website using my Nike+ SportBand. This allows me to view stats and see how I did graphically.
- I have set a goal of running 10 times in the next 30 days. The website is tracking that for me.
However, I was surprised to find tonight that there are actually two Nike+ websites. The first being the original, and the second being a new beta site. Fine, that works. I like the beta site better, so this is a good development.
However, I saw something a bit disturbing. Based on the same data for the same run, the two websites show quite different graphs of my performance. Yikes, what is going on here guys? I like the idea of seeing how I did throughout the run, but can I rely on the results? I now have some doubts.
See for yourself. Here is my run on the original website:
Now, here is that same run on the new beta website:
Does that look like the same run to you? Something is amiss.
And, no remarks from the peanut gallery on how slow I am. I know. I am working on it. Leave it be. Talk to the shoe.
