When running I have been using the default music application on my E71, mainly because I thought the bluetooth headset only worked for it when I skipped songs, answered calls or paused the music, but this wasn’t the case a week ago when I reseted my E71. After installing all of my applications that I care the most I forgot to sync music on the device and give Mobbler a go for the third time while running.

Mobbler is an application that runs on your device and plays music from lastFM, not all music is in there but you can hear tons of music, specially if you like certain type or want to discover new music that is related to an artist. Continue Reading…

Great news, Sports Tracker just made me lose 7 pounds! not really it was my determination but with the help of Nokia Sports Tracker, the application is the main reason for running again. I went today to Sports Chalet just to get a resistance band to do my P90X workouts and saw the demo scale and tried it out and BAM! 165 lbs, I was impressed at how much weight I’ve lost, even though my goal is 160 lbs for the moment.

My weight before starting running was around 173 lbs and now it’s 165, I have ran 20 times with more than 150 miles in total from April 6 2009 to May 30 2009, my average run is around 8 miles in 1hr and 30 minutes, sweating like hell every time.

Now this is getting me more into the running, I am planning on doing the Carlsbad Marathon next year, so I need to prepare at least 5 months before, tomorrow is the Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon here in San Diego, wish I could go but can’t do it if I’m not prepared.

Any tips on training for a marathon? I need some research…

I’ve been using the Sports Tracker on my E71 continously since April 6th and I can say that is a very neat application. I would never imagine how a phone can really change your life.

So now I will give the application a small review:
