My husband bought me a Nike+ Sportwatch GPS and Polar HRT. I'm having problems with the GPS linking. Anyone else have this problem and any tips? Also, if you have the Polar HRT - how accurate do you think the calories burned is? My husband set mine up and failed to put a weight in the Nike+ Connect which could have been why it said I burned 733 calories last night! Pretty sure I did not burn that much.

    I have one, I got the Watch and heart monitor back in June. Unfortunately I can't really help you..I didn't have an initial problem getting the GPS to work, however there have been a few times it wouldn't pick up a signal and I ran without it. The GPS isn't as accurate as even the Nike plus app. I stopped wearing the heart monitor because apparently I have a very fast heart rate..and well it had me scared for while :) So I ditched it...well not literally, I just don't use it. So I can't really help you with the calories burned. I have looked at many web sites, what the treadmills say, and what my Nike watch/app says and I just guesstimate how many calories I burn (approximately 100 calories per mile)...sorry I couldn't be of more help..
