New iPhone Case

I purchased a Lifeproof case for my iPhone 4 and there are some things I really like about it and some things that I hate about it. I did the water test on it and it was waterproof so that is good. I am not really considering going swimming with it but I do like to have a nice durable case for when I am out walking. I am pretty confident that it would handle rain pretty easily. I also like the belt clip that comes with the case. It holds the phone in place securely and I am not worried about losing it.

One of the things that drives me nuts about it is the screen protector. I ran into the same thing with the Otterbox Defender on my older iPhone. It protects the screen but it makes the screen less responsive. I also didn't really care for the implementation of the switch to silence the phone.

I am going to keep the new case for when I need protection for outdoors but will go back to my regular Otterbox Commuter case as my everyday case.

Back to Training

Between work and kids end of school year activities I have not had much time to do as much training as I want to get in.  I did take some time today to go out and stretch it a bit.  I probably should have worked up to it again but it was a nice day and I had time so I went out and did 13 miles today.  I am sure I will be feeling it tomorrow.  I got had intended to hit the road at 6:30 like I would if I was walking on event but I took a little longer to get organized and ended up leaving about 7:00.  The weather was perfect to start but got a little warm as I got close to the end of my walk.  70 is a very comfortable temp but 85 is getting a little warm.  I had a little cloud cover so the sun was not bad either.  I am going to try and get in a couple walks a week now until the 3-Day the weekend after Labor Day.
