Epic Fail

I had a dumb moment this morning, like really dumb! I've been trying to be more active lately especially with the warm weather, so this morning I woke up and had the great idea to go for a run, so I loaded the puppy into the car and we headed over to our favorite trail. I ran a great 2 miles and was in the last stretch and decided to push it, so as I'm in a full out sprint my phone flies out of my sweaty hand soars for a few feet and shatters onto the pavement! SERIOUSLY?! Now I've had my phone for a long time and have dropped it time after time but once I got to the pieces on the ground I knew it was worse than usual.
 
Luckily it is still usable, just not that pretty. I have been wanting a GPS watch for weeks now but keep putting off pushing that buy button because my phone can track my runs and do all the same things. Well it's obviously time to get a GPS. I'm leaning towards this one, but am open to all suggestions. Oh and also ideas on a new phone :) On the plus side, I shaved 3 minutes off of my run time! We are loving this warm weather though and hope it stays warm so we can keep on the family walks and bike rides.

  1. Smooth Jess ;) Jk, I used to do this ALL the time, and luckily my phone always landed in the grass, or I wasn't running so it didn't matter. Now that I have a rubber case on my phone, I feel like it's less slippery when my hands are sweaty. Maybe you should get an armband?

    1. Sadly this wasn't the first time I've thrown it either, I should have learned my lesson. I ended up getting the GPS watch and love it! It's so nice not to have to hold something the whole way.
