If you've not seen one before, here's what it looks like...
Basically, you've got two sensors, one that you connect to the bottom of your iPod and a second which goes inside your trainer. It only works with Nike+ trainers, because they have a little slot in the inside of the left shoe that you connect the sensor to.
Once you're up and running, you can set all sorts of runs, ie distance runs, timed runs, calorie burning runs. I used it for a 50 minute run, and every 10 minutes, it alerts you in your headphones how long you've run. I'm sure if I'd set it to 5km, it would alert me every km.
It's brilliant, I love it. You can get spoken feedback as you're running, so it keeps you going. It's got a power song feature too, which kicks in a chosen track for you when you need it for the last part of the run... I'm sure you might be thinking Eye Of The Tiger haha!!!
It's a good addition to your running, well recommended.
