So did you get any running/fitness gadgets/clothes/books this Christmas?

I bought myself three books:-
The Lore of Running (Thanks MM)
Fit for Life - Ranulph Fiennes
Beyond the Limits - Also by RF

No gadgets as yet, although I have just ordered myself an iPod nano, which I may run with on occasions.

Mark, nice one - The Lore...is a great tome.

For me sadly no running books/gear etc as my wife has banned them from the house. If she sees one more purchase secreted in sock drawer or wherever my arse is grass......instead of the nice manly pert thing it actually is!

However, saying that I will need a new pair of Montrail Hardrocks to replace last years pair. Also still need some decent gloves that keep my hands dry and warm (have mild Reynaulds). So likely to get slapped around later this year.....
