Apple/Nike + iPod Sport Kit Review

Nike+ Sensor was added to my tools to keep me healthy, June 2009.  I love it and use it all the time!  I was more excited when I found out that I didn't have to have the special shoe. 

Pros: 

• The Sensor talks to you through your iPod, you can even pick a male or female voice. You set it up with the information you want it to tell you.
• It is small and there are rubber cases available that will attach your sensor to any shoe.
• There is a sleep button so when it is not in use you are not using up all of the power.
• If you are a marathoner and can't use a MP3 player in your runs there is an arm band that will collect the data for you without the music.
• It is cost effective and a replacement sensor is only $20 bucks on Amazon.
• Comes with a free personal trainer website that stores and tracks your workout log. It has challenges and fun things that you can do against other people or yourself.

Cons:

• It is kind of small, easy to lose if you take it off your shoe on a regular basis, I don't but I have a friend who switches shoes regularly.
• Must have the receiver on your Nano or iPhone or have the special arm band that just came out in July.
• It does run out of power and you do have to replace it. You can't just replace a battery or recharge it.

It is simple to use, easy to pack and I love it!  I don't have to track my work outs anymore I just plug in my Nano and it downloads everything to my Nike website.  It pushes me to push myself and do more.  I will always have my Nike+.
