The sports apparel company has agreed to buy MyFitnessPal, a popular diet-tracking app, for $475 million. Under Armour announced the MyFitnessPal acquisition, as well as the comparatively smaller $85 million purchase of running app Endomondo, alongside its quarterly earnings report Tuesday afternoon.
Heck, I use both apps…. ^_^;

I got an email over the weekend from the organisers. The race this year takes place on Sunday 11th October. You can register your interest and be advised when the ballot opens by going to the site or going to http://www.royalparkshalf.com/Take-part-ballot/. The ballot opens tomorrow (27th January) and runs through to 4th February. You get notified on the 6th Feb if you got a place.
I tried to get into the race last year, and lost out during the ballot. Nonetheless, I’m going to try again this year. Currently trying to build up my mileage again after an extended down-period due to work pressures. Yes, as much as magazines such as Runner’s World and medical professions dispute that, work does impact your mental state and that in turn carries over into your running. Some may find it easy to ditch the work mindset and run, others (like me) don’t find it so easy…
Do not try this at your local gym ^_^
So, it’s Christmas Day, and rather than lie in, I let my alarm go off this morning, got up, and did an early morning run. Not a long distance, mind you, since it was only 6 deg C, but a nice, quiet run. No cars on the road, just me, my music, and the pavement in front of me.
I completed Five to 10K Week 1 Day 2 (7.04 km), in 46:21, pace 06:35 min/km, with @RunDouble http://rndb.co/k5NK
A delay between my last run and this run due to work pressures, reasonably good on this run, dropped to a walk just before the end.
I completed Five to 10K Week 1 Day 1 (7.04 km), in 44:09, pace 06:16 min/km, with @RunDouble http://rndb.co/h5HU
First one of the 5K to 10K plan. Boy was it a tough one. Several intervals of 1.28K with a short walk in between. Still, lasted the session, but my legs are hurting now.
