Nike Plus Contest by Ami Kealoha
In the beginning there was Nike Plus, the Nano-integrated running shoe that tracks time and distance to help manage workouts. Next Crystal Method came out with a track called "Drive" paced for a standard distance run. Now, CH has a complete Nike Plus kit (Moires in the colorway of your choice, the Nike+iPod Sport kit, and a Nano) as well as a free download of "Drive" to giveaway to a reader who answers the following question correctly. What was the name of the athlete disqualified from the Olympics for using a horse and carriage? Submit answers here by next Friday, 4 August 2006, to qualify. (We'll pick at random from correct entries.)

Nike + Contest Winner
Our Nike + Contest generated hundreds of entries—most of them wrong.

Nike 1984 Tier 0 Olympic Pack
With the Beijing Olympic Games just around the corner, it's only fitting that Nike release a pack of sneakers celebrating various Chinese Olympic Athletes from the past. Featuring traditional Chinese colors with some Olympic accents, I especially like the Air Max 1 version. Other silhouettes in the pack include the Blazer Low, Dunk Trainer High, Vintage Nylon Cortez, Court High Force and Wildwood90 Free...

The Crystal Method: Drive
For some, making the perfect gym mix can be more taxing than the workout itself. The recently-released 45-minute track "Drive" is The Crystal Method's solution for athletes who'd rather spend time building muscle than building playlists. A partnership with Nike Plus (adding something like a lifestyle element to the iPod Nano-integrated sneaker that came out last month), the famed electronic duo tailored their new...

mStation Orb
I swear I'm not that big of a nerd, but anything that kind of reminds me of Star Wars is just totally awesome, especially when it happens to look like the Death Star. The Orb from mStation is just that, a sleek and stylish "Made for iPod" desktop docking station/speaker system that, just like the name suggest, is an orb that packs a powerful...
