Will this make me run faster?

If it is pulled on you? Yes, You will run much faster, If your holding it? No.

Without a doubt. Try using it with Agility and Marathon for best results. I rush scrubs all day long with the gold-plated version.

It works great for my running requirements. I monitor my SPM (steps per minute) to ensure I am keeping a specific pace/cadence.

I would think so. Depends on the functions you are looking for. Distance, pace, speed, etc all work great. FYI, the pace calculation is not instantaneous pace, but an average over about a minute or so.

i likewise had the same question. the stated up to 8 mph was the piece of information that grabbed me given i typically run at 6.5 to 7.5 mph on the gym treadmills. anyway, to answer your question: the max speed of this is 6 mph...NOT 8 mph as stated on the amazon webpage!!!!! buzzkill. however, the 6mph seems relatively considerably faster than my gym treadmill's 6mph. as for running, it can handle it. i'm 6 feet tall and weight in around 165 # for reference. hope this helped

Yes I think it only work on running because the GPS tracks ur movement and calculates the amount of calories used for that distance, speed, and time.

This device help you to your aerobic warming, like tuning, change direction, and running speed, nothing else. May be in the near future will be developed the app for kicking. If you have some knowledge about numbers, you could get more information from the graphics of training.

I think it will. I know you can use centimeters instead of inches to set your pace. Here is a link on YouTube that explains how to set it. http://youtu.be/jJRh-_TKzlc

You can go as fast or as slow as you would like. It isn't a running motion, but a gliding motion. I go slower but my wife goes pretty fast and gets a good work out. She runs 3 to 5 times a week, and has run in marathons. On cold days she'll use this over our tread mill for a good work out. I hope this helps.

Absolutely! In fact I got my best half marathon time after training while pushing my dog in this! I highly recommend it :) make sure the front wheel is tight so it doesn't wobble and you're good to go :)

I'm not sure because I don't use it for speed. I do know it works great for my basic purpose. Sorry I can't help you more.

Yes. You'll be surprised how fast it works. Just make sure you don't get it on your clothes.

Sorry, I'm not a runner. I'd suggest you call the manufacturer and ask what the maximum pace would be.

I imagine that it would. This little gadget is far easier to use than following the instructions for my particular treadmill.

Yes! Absolutely. You can select songs of the intensity you'd like, or let them play randomly. It is up to you to walk and/or dance to the beat of the music. A treadmill moves and you are forced to walk to that speed... this plays music and you WANT to move to the speed. But it is up to you. Music does not force you to move like a treadmill does.

Absolutely not. This only tracks your mileage that your run. I has no map etc.

Hi Kurt. I did the same thing with the speed, and ended up with a potential Lucille Ball moment! Going back to the instructions and reading it properly.......turn on the treadmill, THE RED BUTTON, it will give you a 3 beep countdown, get on the treadmill, and press the + key to get to the speed you want.

The foot pod would be a great add. Although you do not need the foot pod to get your running speed, but it gives additional information which helps with training, like cadence and indoor speed for those cold days when you are forced to get your training on a treadmill.
