Pros: Inexpensive - Interactive - Inspirational

Cons: None at this price point.

I bought this for my wife with an Ipod, the Nike arm band and a pair of Shox Navina+ running shoes. My wife is an avid runner and she's been looking for something to motivate her since she doesn't have a running partner. (I only run when chas...ed) Surprisingly she had never heard of this system before and when I presented it to her she looked at it, and me, like I was insane. After some reading (primarily the comments posted here) she set it up, and was off for a test run. Over 1 hour later, and 8.47 miles, she returned as if she had just won the lottery. SHE LOVES IT. She set up her account online to upload her data and she was setting goals and getting excited about the whole deal. She says it worked flawlessly and was something she would use everyday. I spent $29 each for the kit and the optional Nike arm band at Target. The shoes were a bit of a hunt but I found a pair for $99 at Champs Sports and the Ipod was $149 at Target. It's the best gift I ever gave to my wife (and myself). When she's happy I'm happy (wink) and I no longer have to pretend that I'm going to turn off the football game and go running with her "someday." Read more Less
