I cant' believe your iPod is still working! I have heard about putting them in rice, but never kitty litter; that was a great idea!

Never washed my Ipod....but I did wash a cell phone once. We had a burial service immediately following.

It's still FREEZING here. Snow on the ground. I'm OVER winter. By the time it ends, winter will be back again.

Love how your daughter ran out to meet you after your run! Homecomings are the best :) .

Wow, good to know! I dropped my phone in a sewer once and Eric went in and got it but it didn't survive. Your day of hiking sounds great!

I dropped my phone in the stool before, and then put it in a bowl of rice for two days. It came back completely except for the #7 or something like that, so I could still call almost everyone.

More pics of running jerseys with steaks please, except don't ever run in front of me in a race with that thing on. If I'm delirious enough I might chase you with some A1 and a knife.

I've washed a few ipods..one in a top loader that did not make it, and another in my front loader that did survive. My Monday sucked! It was back to school after spring break for me :-/

Yowzers! So glad your i-pod turned out okay. One more reason I would hand wash my Handfuls! :)

I went swimming with an iphone once. I left it in rice for a week, but sadly it didn't come back to life :( Excited to hear that yours did survive and maybe (hopefully there will never be a next time) I'll try kitty litter instead.

Good job on savings the iPod! At least it is clean now. I am glad that it is working because Apple stuff is far from cheap!

Good ole kitty litter!!! That would really bite the big one! Burpees are so killer...I was just reading Lisa's comment above....1 mile of burpees. That is just crazy...or amazing!

2013-04-02T11:40:43.061-06:00

you are extremely lucky that your ipod is back up and running again. What kind of handful bra do you use that yours has a pocket?? I have to be in the mood for burpees. One of the blogs I followed- petite athleat, did 1 mile, 4 laps, around the track of straight up burpees last year... think it took her 2 hours or something. I'm pretty sure I will NEVER be in the mood for that.

Bummer about your iPod but glad you got It working...

Bummer about your iPod but glad you got
It working again!

2013-04-02T11:04:38.372-06:00

Me and burpees do not get along..I almost pass out every time I try do them from being light headed. I need to find a site so I can modify my strength workouts throughout the week. Any suggestions?

Oh, burpees! I did 120 in a class once and thought...

2013-04-02T10:26:05.004-06:00

Oh, burpees! I did 120 in a class once and thought it was the end of the world. I might have to check out those Spartan workouts.

Wow I'm impressed that your iPOD survived, cool!

I dropped my cell phone in the pool during a swimming lesson, & it pretty much came back to life, although the camera wasn't very good after that. So glad your iPod survived!

2013-04-02T10:00:46.149-06:00

50 burpees?!! I only did 10 yesterday and I had to break it into 2 sets of 5! lol...
So glad your ipod made it! That would've been a sad day if you couldn't have revived it!! I've never had that happen with electronics (knock on wood), but i have done it with money, a pen, and a magnet that ended up stretching out the shirt it was on... whoops!

I once washed my cell phone. It didnt end well.

2013-04-02T08:42:57.219-06:00

You are amazing! I can not believe you did all of that in one day. How do you find the time?
Never washed my ipod, I would be devastated if I did though and it didn't work. I will remember your tricks though, heaven forbid I do wash it :)
Happy Tuesday!

2013-04-02T08:30:20.771-06:00

My iPod has survived many rain storms, when I used to not hide it under my running skirt. I have a "time out" bag of rice I keep around just in case I mess up again. Congrats on saving yours! It doesn't always workout.

Oh, and those Spartan WODs-- wow, no way.

2013-04-02T08:05:51.969-06:00

I like to add components of the Spartan WOD to whatever I'm doing that day. Today, I'll add some lunges between our group speed work.
Never washed an iPod (yet).
I still love that beef jersey!

2013-04-02T08:01:30.545-06:00

My wife washed her iPod... ya, no amount of rice, kitty litter or heat could bring that sucker back from the dead. Glad your's was saved.

2013-04-02T07:21:19.061-06:00

Yikes about your Ipod, glad that it still works! Never heard of using kitty litter before, but I have seen rice used. My Monday was kind of craptastic, but I feel like that is the norm for me at the beginning of the week. At least I will end it on vacation mode for 5 days. :-)

2013-04-02T07:12:45.017-06:00

I get spartan wod emails and I always delete them lol... I don't even open them. Terrible, I know, but really they are terrifying lol.

2013-04-02T06:29:32.428-06:00

I dropped my iPhone in the toilet a few months back, and turns out, rice works the same as kitty litter :) Although, I'm still waiting for the day when it just quits working because I shorted something out!
