Sporty 1.5, Nike+ Sportband Revisited
Ok, so my Sportband crapped out after a very wet run so, the great people at Fleet Feet Syracuse or Nike, you can never be to sure took it back and replaced it with a new one, yippeee. I queried the owner of Fleet Feet and he mentioned that on the Fleet Feet owners forum, there were mixed reviews on what was going on with the Sportband, “there was one store who sold 100 and only had 1 returned, while others sold 27 and had 15 returned.” It appears that the store in Syracuse was one of the latter sceneries, and I may go into my theory on this phenomenon at a later date.
My first run with Sporty 1.5 was nearly an exact replica of Sporty 1.0, 5 miles on OLP with the calibration off almost 1.1 miles. I set the calibration, so easy, I do love that feature of old Sporty. I will run again today and see how it works out, my expectations are high. It’s about 83 degrees today so there will be a good deal of sweat trying to creep into the watch, the saga continues.
