Great Motivation December 27, 2009 Envelope Deb (Florida) 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I bought the Nike+ SportBand to easily keep track of my running progress as I train for a half marathon. I do not use an ipod but bought Nike shoes that are Nike+ ready. I am entering my second week of use of the SportBand and I am very happy with it. It is very user friendly, comfortable and easily uploads run info to the Nike+ website. The sensor (included with my purchase) seems to be very accurate.

I had a first generation band that lasted about a year and a half (finally the portion that inserts into the USB drive failed to hold a charge through a workout). The mileage could vary significantly, being off up to a quarter of mile for each mile. However, this new band has been right on the mark, usually within one hundredth of a mile. You can use this on road running or the treadmill. It is great to be able to easily track your mileage and satisfying to see your progress on the Nike + website. The website can be tempermental, but that could be a mac issue. In general, it is an easy system to use. Both bands that I have had required about a half hour of getting the band to see the sensor chip, which is frustrating to say the least. Don't forget to buy a sensor holder for your shoe. It will not fit into a shoe except for a couple Nike models. I also bought my sister a band and her sensor died in 6 months, while mine still works after a year and a half. Nike/Apple has been good about replacing sensor chips when my friends have had issues, but my sister just stopped using it. Friends have had problems where their iPods never could find chips or that they would intermittently work. So, be wary that the chips are prone to defects.

If you don't have a ipod nano, then this product is great for tracking your runs and keeping you motivated.
Like it so much, bought another as a gift! February 6, 2010 Meredi (Rockville, MD USA) I bought one for myself and like it so much that I bought one for my sister!
Great gift! February 27, 2010 Alyssa (NY) I bought the Nike+ wristband for my boyfriend and he loves it! It is a great workout accessory. It also came before the estimated arrival date!
