read How accurate is the Nike plus ipod device?

by: Free Membercdbamford - Mar 22 2008, 9:45PM

I've found that the accuracy of my ipod nano depends on where I place it on my shoe.  I usually place it under my shoe laces.  If it is parallel to my foot, I get decent accuracy (if I run a consistent pace over a flat course). If it is perpendicular to my foot, or if it slides around in my shoe, or if I vary my pace, it is not as consistent.

Related to this, is the dock sensor thing really only usable with Nano iPods? Is there something that would prevent it working with the latest iPod Classic? I'd consider getting this, but I don't really need another iPod.

I am having trouble with my nike plus. I have tried calibrating it on several occasions but each time I reset the ipod it gives me vastly different readings when running the same run at an almost the same exact pace. Is anyone else experiencing the problems?

I didn’t want to think about hydration or nutrition any longer. I missed a few aid stations in the last few miles, simply because I didn’t notice them until I was running through the aftermath of crushed cups. (More)
