I beleive that most, if not all, of them work by counting strides and mulitplying by the length of your stride (a setting that you give it). For runners, walkers, and joggers, that is probably a close assumption. For officiating, the stride would vary so much, you could be 2-3x off.
That stinks. I was going to try it out and then possibly propose a research project (thesis) on the possible benefits of officiating and aerobic/anaerobic activity in males 35-40 years old.

I may still try it. I will keep you all informed. Heck, they may not even think it is a worthy research project.
