| Wyatt: | Wow. The Polar foot-pod calibration, eh? Apparently that's supposed to measure distance pretty well? On straight & flat? But what about trails & hills? I guess you don't have to worry about the hills part... |

| speedy: | I didn't use it for a long time, but since I tried it again - I like it even if it's not so precise. I still able to see relative speed and distance approximation.
I'll do more tests on a flat surface and compare them to gmap. In general, it suppose to measure distance within +-3% (or better). User manual recommends to calibrate every time you change your shoes, running style, or position of the pod. And sure, best results you get on the same type of surface. And the most tricky test will be on the track doing repeats/intervals (which is schedulled for tomorrow) workouts where you 100% know distance:) |
