I didn't see it anywhere in the comments so I'll say it here for you guys. The USATF does not allow listening devises because they feel some people might use them to listen to pace setting information like staggered beeps (think metronome) or messages to increase or decrease your running speed. For pros, this would invaluable to have. My girlfriend ran the Chicago marathon last year and it's listed clearly in the rules. RTFM, Jennifer. Reply

@N@tedog: It doesn't even need that. I can fill my iPod with music of a certain BPM (or varying BPMs) for the same effect. Reply

@N@tedog:

Still dumb. Whether you're rocking out to a metronome or getting pace setting hot tips or not, your body is still running 26.2 miles faster than anyone elses.

@che-che: No No...it was a recorded message that said "run faster" over and over. Totally cheating. Reply

@stopsucking: Aw, if she was a blonde then we could totally recyle the joke about the blonde that needed a walkman to remember how to breathe. Reply
