Jogging is not the most interesting thing in the world to do with your time. However, it’s made infinitely more engaging with the addition of music. Well now you can have more than just tunes in your ears as you run. The Nike+iPod Sport Kit enables you to link your shoes and iPod together to help monitor your progress as you run.

It’s a part of the Nike+ range of footwear, which can accept a small sensor that communicates with an attachment for your iPod nano. The sensor beams time, distance and calories burnt to the iPod, which can relay that information to you care of a soothing female voice. You can then download your run to your computer and monitor your progress over a series of outings.

So, if music is not enough to get you motivated to run that extra bit further, perhaps the guilt treatment from being reminded of how far behind you are will help push you over the line.
