Nike + SportBand

'helpful but if you don't run at a constant speed, there's problems with accuracy.'
Strengths:
Easy to use, nice design & good fit, works in all weather conditions, easy enough to set up and start using, it can be a good motivator to see how you're doing online
Weaknesses:
I do lots of different paced training runs & find that the faster I run, the less accurate the mileage is. The calibration only seems to work if you're always running at a similar pace.

Need to wear nike+ ready trainers really but you can get a pocket for about £12 for other shoes now.
Overall:
Decent product but would be a lot better for me if the mileage was measured more accurately when running at any pace.

I'd recommend it but only if you're training for a fairly long distance so your training is at a fairly steady, fixed pace.
