I was messing around on Twitter earlier today, when I came across the Twiike Leaderboard. I’ve posted about Twiike before – It allows you to automatically add your Nike+ runs to Twitter. Anyway, the Twiike service put together a list of the top 100 runners (out of those using the service, obviously). When I saw that, I told myself that I needed to be on that list – I was just assuming I wasn’t on there. As I scrolled down, I saw my Twitter name (@Runlikeh3ll) and I’m #73 on the list. Pretty cool! Now I’m determined to move up that list. I’ve been doing nothing but interval runs lately, so my runs are short but fast. Anyway, we’ll see how that goes.

I absolutely love Nike+ iPod. This thing has kept me motivated to continue running for over a year. I don’t use it for every single run I go on (sometimes I forget to bring the Nike+ chip with me, sometimes I do the elliptical at the gym because my knees are bothering me, etc) but I’ve been using it for close to two years now, and the novelty hasn’t worn off. I have no idea if other people ever check out my run info, but I know that I check my own stats out every once in a while.

Anyway, I came across Twiike this morning. You can use it to display your Nike+ runs on your Twitter profile (mine is here). Pretty cool, huh? I don’t know how many of you use Nike+ (and out of that group, how many also use Twitter) but if you do happen to use both, I don’t see any reason why you wouldn’t want to check out Twiike.
