Nike+ GPS App Now Allows Everyone To Run, No Sensor Required [NikePlus]

The superb Nike+ App permit you to track how far, how fast and at what speed you’re running with only a sensor for your Nike-branded shoe and a compatible iPod or iPhone. Now you don’t need the sensor or the shoe.

The $1.99 app, which just got posted to iTunes , uses GPS to track where you run-something the old version was lacking-but still includes the community features that made running not quite one of these lonely affair. Now you should use the iPod touch 2nd through 4th gen, and the iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 with the Nike+ app. Only the iPhone works with GPS functionality unless you have got something like Magellan’s iPod touch case , which adds GPS ability (at the side of a number of weight).

As keen on the original Nike+ concept, I’m happy that this lets more people running with the intention to make it more likely that I actually have someone to challenge to a race. [ iTunes ]
