This little Nike+iPod setup makes a great workout companion for those early morning runs all alone. The workout screen on your Nano will tell you how far you went, and what a great job and how long it’s taken you to get there in addition to the usual song title and band name display.

A little voice will poke through your music and tell you when you’re just about to your goal. A whisper in your ear to push you to that final destination (100 meters to go) and then right back to your favorite tunes for workout motivation.

You’ll be able to track distance, time, pace and calories burned. You can also set up PowerSongs access the tunes that get you pumped instantly. It’s everything you need to manage your workout AND enjoy it more.

This fun little combo has one major downside. The pedometer battery is not replaceable, so eventually you have to buy a whole new kit if the battery goes kaput. Unless you know a battery genius that knows how to work some chargeable magic on it, then you might be okay.
