(which I've bought and have sitting on my desk - I guess I need to get my act together and actually try it). Now - they are donating $1 to a cause for every mile that you run and record on their website. The Lance Armstrong Foundation is up first - Nike is donating up to $50,000 for 50,000 miles contributed (he's got $24,469.28 contributed at this point.) The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society are in the mix as is a showdown between the Northside and Southside of Chicago. Awesomely cool stuff.

Donate Your Miles to Charity
Bill Erickson sent me a link to a TUAW article on Introducing Nike + Group Goals. Nike has a super cool Nike + iPod Sport Kit (which I've bought and have sitting on my desk - I guess I need to get my act together and actually try it). Now - they are donating $1 to a cause for every mile that you run and record on their website. The Lance Armstrong Foundation is up first - Nike is donating up to $50,000 for 50,000 miles contributed (he's got $24,469.28 contributed at this point.) The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society are in the mix as is a showdown between the Northside and Southside of Chicago. Awesomely cool stuff.
