Nike+ Sports Kit

Hiya,
I just got myself a new pair of Nike's and was considering trying out the Sports Kit with my ipod. Just wondering if anyone has any opinion on whether it is worth it or not?

Thanks

I liked it until my sensor stopped working =)

I've heard a lot of complaints about it not lasting very long........ how long did yours last?  That is what worries me really. S.

I still have my original which is over three years old.  It has gone through four pairs of shoes.  I'm not sure how the sensor holds up in the rain.  Haven't done to many races in the rain, but I have done a few.  I worry more about the Nano getting wet. Rob

I used it about 2 weeks. Haven't really had time to look at why its not working, but it cuts out at a 1/4 of a mile.

I have used the Nike+ with my ipod Nano for over three years.  I love it!  Whenever I do solo runs it helps me pass the time.  It's great to have Lance tell you what a great job you are doing,  When I'm running with a partner, I still use it but she gets offended if I'm not listening and talking, so I just turn it to get credit for the mileage.  So I would go for it. Rob

Thanks Rob :-)
