Reviews:

  • Running Cadence – The greatest thing about the new S3 footpod is that it can measure your running cadence. This is constantly monitored and graphed out along with all the other data at your chosen sample rate. For years, coaches have tried to get their athletes to increase turnover rate, and it has been very difficult to quantify. If you don’t like this feature, your coach is going to love it!
