pencil skirt Magellan Maestro GPS Portable Charger

Although the Nike Sportwatch GPS is an excellent choice for any level of runner, it can also be easily used by walkers, bicyclists, and hikers.

The interface is very simple, if not intuitive. The menus are very easy to navigate and contain only useful settings and features. The watch can be set to use GPS, the foot pod, or a combination of the two to measure distance ran. The watch can also be set to timed intervals.

The display is large and easy to read, and can be set to standard black characters with white back drop or inverted. The back-light is activated by flicking or tapping the screen, making it easy to light up while running. The display during the run can display two different sets of data at any time with one set able to be switched during the run. The data to that can be displayed includes: Pace, Speed, Distance, Time Elapsed, Average Pace, Calories Burned, and Clock. Distance can be measured in either standard or metric units.

Another feature that is less functional but still nice is your Records. You can access your total miles ran, fastest mile time, fastest kilometer, your fastest 5k time, your fastest 10k time, and your longest run. Also, you can go to your History and look up your most recent runs.

For tracking distance, the foot pod/GPS combination is very accurate. When GPS signal is weak, the foot pod (a small device that is placed under the insole inside of your shoe) keeps track of the pace you're moving, so when the signal for GPS picks up again it can accurately measure your speed during that signal loss. The foot pod takes some experimenting in finding placement that is not uncomfortable. The best place seems to be the very back of the heal so that more of the back of your foot rather than the bottom of your foot is activating the foot pod with each step. I found this to be the least intrusive place, and it does not bother me while I'm running. The watch has been accurate to the 1/100th of a mile for 8 runs, including through heavily wooded suburban areas.

The way this watch goes above and beyond is when you connect it to your computer. After downloading software from nikeplus.com, your watch will automatically upload all of your run data to a profile that you set up. Your profile will display all of your run times, your run routes on a map, your speed during the run, and has a plethora of other features. It can help you set goals with your frequency of running, distance, calories, and speed. You also become connected to the community of Nike runners where you can set team goals, exchange running advice, and download training programs that have specific goals in mind. This is just the surface of the website's functionality.

The watch itself is very sporty looking. It's black face with neon green/yellow back side gives it a very loud look. The band has 9 settings and a very effective clipping system that keeps the strap from flapping loose.

This watch has exceeded my expectations, and while I could do without the the neon coloring , it is a tertiary concern and with little consequence. Stylistically, a lot of people will appreciate it. As far as functionality is concerned, I give it a 11 out of 10. This GPS watch does everything I could want and more.
