I just searched this kind of thread because I was just looking at it to buy it and wanted to see other reviews. But to answer your question yes. But u have to purchase the S1 foot pod separately.

How much is your budget? I switched from Polar to Garmin when I started running & biking. The Garmin does everything in on package but they are not cheap. Polar has a HRM with GPS which is good too. Need to add up the cost of the FT60 plus foot pod and compare to Garmin or Polar RC3/RCX3. Good source of info here: http://www.dcrainmaker.com/product-reviews

I am a big Garmin fan and would also recommend that if you are looking at pace/speed tracking.
The lower level ones aren't too expensive. The 305 is usually around $130.
Just a note though - while all models give you a calorie estimate, only a few base them on heart rate. If you check the specs it will usually say.

Mine doesn't so if that's important to you, then get the next level up. I got mine because I wanted the burn rate when I do exercise classes/gym. So if you are a distance runner, the ft60 alone isn't for you.

I think the FT60 don't track the distance. I have the polar RS300X. The food pod is included in the price, and it's really accurate (it says exactly the same distance as google maps or so does).
