Nike+ GPS Sportwatch

One of my running friends has it. She used to use the Nike plus app and I know she likes it so far. If you have any questions I can ask her for you. Just let me know.

Here is my friend's responses on the watch. Let me know if you have more questions

I love my watch! I honestly have nothing to compare it to but my experience with it is that it's exactly what I was looking for. I definitely sweat a lot and it doesn't give me any problems around my wrist. I've only run with it in the rain once but again no issues. It is waterproof though. It is pretty basic, I think. I just click Run and it picks up my location, distance, pace, average pace, and time. A heart rate monitor comes separate. As far as I can tell, you can't program runs. And it doesn't have the option that your Garmin has to tell you if you're hitting your pace goals. I do like how it connects to the Nike website to compare you to other runners and brings up maps of your routes. On the site you can enter your goals and it will tell you how well you're doing. Let me know if you need to know anything else!
Oh and you can toggle though data.
I find it also picks up your GPS location quickly so you can start the run fast.

I have one. Compared to Garmin watches, it's very basic IMO. You get your pace, calories burned, etc. and it does intervals but unless I just haven't figured it out yet it doesn't beep or anything.

To be completely honest, I bought it because it's pretty. LOL. also, I'm not a serious runner. I do mostly 5Ks with at least two half marathons a year and am lucky if I hit more than 40 miles in a month.

I was looking at this too! I feel like the garmin has too many features I wouldn't use and I'd get annoyed with the interface. I currently run with the nike app on my phone and it gives me all the info I need, so I've been looking into the watch.

wannabe how big is it on your wrist?

I just ran with it today. It is kind of big, but I think all of the running watches are a little large anyway.
