Today was the day I was starting my Nike+ challenge runs for Lilla's (Lilla: Self-fulfilling Prophecy) challenge.  I was immediately frustrated.  I had problems right away getting my wristband to see my sensor.  It just wouldn't synch up and start recording. 

I looked through the http://www.nikeplus.com knowledge base and saw some ideas to try.  None of them worked.  I called their support line (amazing but they were open on a Sunday) and the gentleman tried quickly to help me but was unsuccessful.  He told me to return it. 

I went back to 24 Hour Fitness and returned the item and got a new one.  After charging it I headed off for a 1 mile run just to test it out.  Immediately I faced more frustration (but caused by myself).  As I was running the USB portion flew off the wristband.  I stopped and put it back on (but the time is continuing to run).  I ran again and got to about a 1/2 mile and looked at the wristband and the USB thing was missing again. I had to walk back and find it.  Finally I noticed that there was a place to secure it into its slot.  After securing it, I never had another problem.  However, it definitely added about 90 seconds to my run.

In addition, all the stopping and starting stressed out my right calve muscle a little bit.  I rubbed that down though.
