Editorial Review:
Joggers who adhere to specific training schedules will delight in the Suunto foot pod transmitter, which attaches to a shoe to measure a runner's speed and distance, and then transmits this information to the Suunto t6 wristwatch computer (sold separately). Using the t6 and its accompanying PC software, a runner can then perform a complex training analysis complete with graphic illustrations. The foot pod is wireless, so users needn't worry about cumbersome wires or cables, and it features a sizable transmission range of up to 30 feet whether worn outdoors on a trail or indoors on a treadmill. In addition to calculating average speed and distance, the pod also measures lap times and includes a speed limit alarm to keep runners from overtraining. Get the most from you t6 wristwatch computer with the Suunto foot pod, which runs on a single AAA battery (included).

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Great addition to T6
I have had my foot pod for a little over a month now and have enjoyed it. I have not had any problems connecting it with the T6 (yet!). It IS a little confusing at first to figure out how to calibrate it, but once that is done you never have to do it again. It fits nicely on the shoelaces, but sometimes slips off to the side (it is not as accurate if it is not level and pointing straight ahead), but it has not posed much of a problem for me; however, I am not a "serious" runner, only recreational!
Rating:  - Very exact
After some adjustments running different distances on a 400 m track I was running 21100m and the difference was 10 meters, nothing actually.
Rating:  - Good for short distances, but calibration problems were evident during a marathon
At first I was pleased with the foot pod, it is very light and easy to run with. However, when running on a track, I tried to calibrate the unit to a precise 1.0 mile. The setting wouldn't save properly and kept changing to either 1.1 or 0.9 and didn't seem to have systematic reason why. To be safe on my pacing, I set the unit to 0.9 and trained with it for 5-10 miles run satisfactorily for a few weeks.
During a marathon, I tried to keep my pace based on the footpod reading. After mile 10 ... Read More
Rating: - Great Product
Purchased the foot pod as part of the Duathlon set for the T6. It's a really great training tool, but you need to understand what you are getting and not get totally caught up in the "accuracy" factor
PROS - much lighter than it looks - really don't notice it on your shoe. Easy to clip on your laces. It works - the ANT transmission is really reliable. It lets you run anywhere and gives you a pretty accurate record of how far and how fast you ran. It's very accurate out of the box and ... Read More
Rating: - Works as advertised
The Suunto footpod works as advertised. Once you calibrate it according to your running/walking stride it is dead on. I calibrated it at a track by running 800 meters. If you if have the Suunto T6 and want to be able to track your distance and your pace speed get it.
