Hard to call head phones hobby jogging as lots of elites do it. Hell Ryan hall has a commercial where he does it. Not my thing but certainly not just for hobby joggers. Garmin's are for everybody, if you think you are tough because you don't use one you are only helping your competition. GPS's are perhaps the greatest invention to help train runners since the stop watch. Camel baks are for hobby joggers and perhaps marathon runners training on their own. Either way you are whats wrong with LR.

Garmin's what?

So what? That commercial was all over the TV during the Olympics.

I saw an All-American/2012 Summer Olympian running on campus the other day with an ipod. Was it my duty as a Letsrunner to smugly call him a hobbyjogger and ask where his Garmin and CamelBak were?

By using the word "him" we have narrowed it down to male.

I am going with Matt Centro Jr. who would still have reason to be on campus.

Any other possibilities? Donn Cabral?????

WERE HIS EAR BUDS ATTACHED TO HIS IPOD, YA MOTHA LICKA?

Cabral still has a year of eligibility left, while Centro turned pro back in November and would have graduated by now.

I listen to music on my easy runs." - Kara Goucher.

"During the summertime, I'll listen to music on my training runs" - Andrew Wheating

" If I'm running for an hour out there in the forest it's fun to just listen to music that I enjoy so it's pretty much what I'd listen to at home." - Ian Dobson

"If I do listen to music during a hard effort, though, I like something up-tempo and fast-paced - especially electronic or dance music. But if I'm just going on an easy run, I go with something mellower." -Sara Hall

How often do you listen to music when you run? "Probably half my runs... I never listen to music when I'm with people, which is probably why I only listen to music on half my runs. "

-Lauren Fleshman

" On days that I'm alone, running easy, or doing a long run, I find that music keeps me motivated." -Shalane Flanagan

Every guess so far in this thread is wrong.

Wanna go to a place where people wee on each otha???

I used to see Brian Sell running around town with an iPod from time to time.

You have one duty only； that is to stfu and let someone who has forgotten more about their job than you will ever know to go about their business without you sticking your retard nose into things.

Would you tell an astronaut or a vet how to do their job? Of course not, because you know the square root of f all about their jobs, just as you do about how music makes a specific runner feel.

One of the dumbest ops in a while here.

Great troll. It's been a solid day, and I've been waiting, but nobody has seen themselve's as smug, yet.
