So, I'm getting about 1.75-2 miles per game.

I put the foot pod on my shoe, and just slip the watch piece that records all the data in my pocket.

I love my forerunner for marathon training. The problem with the forerunner is that it's calculated to straight-line running and does not properly register turns. Otherwise, it's a great product but maybe lacking precision for this application.

Any particular marathon you are training for? I'll be in Nashville in April, it's my favorite destination. This will be my third year in Nashville
