Shoe Pedometer
One is the Shoe Odometer (picture), which claims great accuracy (and also helps you know when it is time to replace your shoes). Here are some of its features and benefits, according to the company's website: Helps Prevent injuries Here is a product description: Revolutionary new product, designed and developed by a longtime running coach. Walkers as well as runners are talking about it. So tough it can withstand being run over by a car. Worn on the shoe, so it is extremely accurate. Wynn Davis, serious ultra runner, says "The Shoe Odometer is just sweet. It's so inconspicuous and it functions very well under harsh conditions." Go to Amazon.com Another product marketed as a shoe pedometer is the Nike + iPod Sport Kit. This is a sensor to place in a pocket in Nike running shoes. According to a product description: Check out the Nike + iPod menu and choose how you want to run. You can use custom workout shortcuts to start your favorite workouts quickly. Try the open-ended workout or select one with time, distance, or calorie goals. Then pick your favorite playlist, shuffle songs, or choose Nike-created Sport Music. You can even program a Power Song to play when you need instant motivation. As you run, your iPod or iPhone 3GS tells you your time, distance, pace, and calories burned. And it gives you feedback at the halfway point and in the final lead-up to your goal. You can also see the details of your workout on your iPod or iPhone 3GS.
