Default Nike+

I got the Nike+ Sportsband for Christmas; anyone else have one of the Nike+ products? I'm looking forward to being able to track my running info easily. Should be interesting.

Yes. works great.
Don't expect it to be correct when using on a treadmill, however. That's the only "problem." There is a thread from a couple years ago with … Og? asking about it.

The only Nike+ product I have is the music track that The Crystal Method produced. I pace my inline speedskating workouts to it as the tempo change throughout the song works well for me. If you like the dance/techno stuff, I think it's worth the buy.

Missed this thread.

I got the Nike+ stuff for xmas as well. Works great. it was pretty accurate right out of the box. After calibration it reported a 5km run while the Garmin reported a 4.97km run. Close enough for this cowboy.

I haven't done any of the music/beat for running, I just listen to my regular stuff, although I know some songs are better for running than others, and I suspect it is a beat thing.
