 Running made easy with the latest tech

Here on the West Coast, autumn has officially arrived, and I have been relishing my recent outdoor jogs. Nearly every day, I go for a run or a power walk outside, though the frequency and intensity of these excursions depend on my mood and the intensity of my last workout. I'm going to be talking about some of the newest running gadgets that have made keeping track of your workouts a breeze. Since music is what keeps me going during the times when I feel like quitting, I'm also trying out some of the newest headphones technology.
