I've been trying to incorporate some modest mapping into my recent jogging efforts. Carrying the GPS and sometimes a notebook and pencil is pretty clumsy. The GPS on its own is OK in my hand, but it leaves me reliant on my memory for names. This is like a floppy disk that's been left in a car glovebox. I guess I look like a dweeb, too, but that's also the situation without it. I do get nice performance stats from the GPS unit.
I didn't get lost, but I did wonder about the minds of people who would name a street Wonderlost Outlook. Surely they mean Wanderlust? $SEARCH_ENGINE on that gives me nothing that looks significant. I can only surmise either drugs, stupidity, xenophobia, or a person's strangely mis-Anglicised name.
Perhaps I am being unfair and exhibiting shaded friendship.

I have my GPS strung round my neck (signal doesn't seem to mind), and then a camera in my hand for 'photo mapping' type notes.
If it is cold you could put the GPS on your head then a hat on top, but maybe its never cold enough jogging.

there are tools like realtime surveyor so that i don't have to remember everything. :)
