how do you change the channels while you are running on free run?

I agree completely with Gidget. It would be great to have a game where it was just running with a bunch of different trails to take! I have a treadmill I run on in front of my 42″ TV and I love it. Reminds me of Cross Country in High School.
As for the remote thing. I just get a belt and put it around my waist. Then I stuff the remote between my side and the belt. Works great because I can still get to the buttons if I need to and it doesn’t slip because I can adjust the belt.
I have to try out the following dog thing. Seems like lots of fun and I’ll have to see where they can take me.

You can’t do your own thing on the runs – you either ignore the dogs and follow your pacemaker, or you overtake him when the dogs come up and take one of those routes. There are several different variations – my favourites are going over the high bridge and jumping off at the end, or going under the waterfall and through the sea at the end.
I believe there is a new wii fit game coming out later this year – does anyone know what’s in it?
Keep on running!

There’s a path through the windmills you can get to from the Island Loop but there’s no dog to take you there. Has anybody successfully run on this path? It comes out behind the houses but you can’t seem to get to it from that direction, either. It seems strange Nintendo would create an obvious path you can run on!

When you start out on the free run and go to the bridge, after the peak you should look to the lower right and see what kinda looks like a Mario sticker.

hi, I was wondering if there is anything higher than free run (never tried only on island) but I kinda want to take my own route and also how to turn on free run

I have tried holding the wii controller in my hand and in my pocket and I can’t get my character to run. It’s driving me crazy. I’ve moved my arms and body like a maniac and nothing works.

You follow a dog by sprinting and overtaking your trainer when you see a dog running in front of you. Has anyone come across a map with all the possible running routes on it?

I am loving my Wii Fit and the Island Run. After reading posts I am wondering – how can I follow a dog instead of my trainer?
