About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
The Garmin Running Dynamics Pod easily clips onto your waistband to measure the running dynamics you need to beat yesterday. It gives you the option to run without a heart rate monitor chest strap and still be able to track metrics that can’t be measured at the wrist.
Review your form View and analyse your cadence, stride length, ground contact time and balance, vertical oscillation and vertical ratio - these biomechanical metrics can help you understand your running form so you can perform better on race day. The pod is easy to use, just pair it with your compatible watch, clip it to the back of your waistband and start your run. It’s so tiny you may forget it’s there!

Key features
The Running Dynamics Pod measures torso movement to calculate these 6 running metrics:
Cadence Cadence is the number of steps per minute. It displays the total steps (left and right combined).
Ground contact time balance Ground contact time balance displays the left/right balance of your ground contact time while running. It displays a percentage. For example, 53.2 with an arrow pointing left or right.
Stride length Stride length is the length of your stride from one footfall to the next. It is measured in metres.
Vertical oscillation Vertical oscillation is your bounce while running. It displays the vertical motion of your torso, measured in centimetres for each step.
Vertical ratio Vertical ratio is the ratio of vertical oscillation to stride length. It displays a percentage. A lower number typically indicates better running form.
Ground contact time Ground contact time is the amount of time in each step that you spend on the ground while running. It is measured in milliseconds.

sorted byAlso the HRM pro or the HRM pro+ gives the same metrics and also the HR for a slighter higher price (you can usually find the HRM pro for about £50)
Still might be interesting for people with older Garmin's (edited)
Though seems it doesn't count for your daily steps totals, bit annoying.
