how to trick nike+ into thinking you went for a run

it is annoying when you forget your nike+ device for the ipod when youre off for a run.

BUT, it is simple enough to generate the xml needed to let the ipod know you went for a run.

unhide all the files in your ipod.

then look in:

F:\iPod_Control\Device\Trainer\Workouts\Empeds\4H6439C1VSX\synched

where the 4H643… is the number of your nike+ device

find a synched run that was similar in length and time to the one you just did.

rename the file with recent datestamp

copy it to

F:\iPod_Control\Device\Trainer\Workouts\Empeds\4H6439C1VSX\lastWorkout.xml

change the stuff in there that looks important, like:

<time>2007-05-15T07:07:00+13:00</time>

<startTime>2007-05-15T07:07:00+13:00</startTime>
