Nike joined forces with Apple ipod to bring us shoes that talk to you. It is an awesome devise, apple came out with a chip that fits into certain designed insoles in nike+ shoes. Accompanying the chip is a monitoring devise that clips in the bottom of your ipod that monitors the movements of the chip. This little beauty give you accurate feedback as you go for your daily jog. It monitors your calories burned, pace and time. Also as your run and listen to music on your ipod, a voice comes through the headphones informing you of the key distance points of your workout. You can also hit the center button of your ipod and the voice will got through a complete low down of all of your stats at that current time, how fast your running, calories you've burned and how long you have been running. Now with that same technology they are coming out with a heart rate monitor that is another attachment that goes on your ipod to give you even a greater handle on your personal training goals. I think this is great! I love that we live in a country that people can come up with awesome ideas and bring them to life for us to enjoy.

This is really fun if you are running....but i think the best part of it is how it can tell you how far you ran and the calories you burned! Love it! Kind of expensive though....
