Apple/Nike + iPod Sport Kit —
My husband got me the nike sport kit for Christmas to go with my Ipod. I love to run anyways and he thought this would be a good gift and he was right. I went out and bought a new pair of Nike running shoes to go with it. You have to make sure you get the nikes with the + as they are the ones with the opening for the sensor. I started it up, picked my power song, Lose youself by eminem and started running. There are many different options you can choose such as Distance, Time or Calories. I always choose distance and a voice comes on over my music to tell me for instance I have run 1 km or that I am half way done. When you have run farther than you ever have Lance Armstrong tell you that was the farthest you have ever run congratulations. When you are finished running you plug in your ipod to the computer and it sends all your information to the Nike web site. On the Nike web site you can view all your runs. You can set goals and track your progress. You can join challenges with other runners and compete. I am in 3 challenges right now. The first is who can run the most in 1 week, who can run the most in 30 days, and who can run the fastest 10k. It is really motivating for me because I want to win my challenges. When I see someone has surpassed me in miles, I want to get out and run and be #1. The power song is also very motivating. When I am tired and don't think I can run any more, I hold down the middle button on my ipod and it plays my power song Lose Yourself by eminem and then I can keep running! The only negatives are a couple of times for no reason it has ended my workout in the middle and then when I push resume workout it doesn't want to resume and it shows I am running 0 miles per hour messing up my times. The other negative is that it can take up to 2 hours to upload your runs to your challenges.Last edited on Mar 25, 2008
