can it time the 40 yard dash, 60 meter dash or 100 meter dash? similar to adidas micoach xcell?

I have the adidas and polar the polar is about twice the size and have a hard time getting a good reading from it. I use the adidas daily on my treadmill runs

I looked through my info and could not find anything . You could call a Sprint store . They might have the answer . Sorry I couldn't be more helpful .

Outside your Forerunner will use the GPS and give you actual speeds and distances. Inside if you're on a treadmill or if you are on an inside track and your watch can't get a GPS signal, the foot pod will estimate your distance and speed pretty accurately. I'm not sure exactly how the algorithm that it uses calculates it but it uses cadence information that it gets from the accelerometer of the foot pod and your stride length to do the estimates. I think that I read that the more that you run/walk using the GPS and foot pod, the more accurate it gets.

I'm not sure about DASH. But I use it with my Android phone using the Torque app. I'm in a Hyundai.

The max speed is 4 miles per hour, which could get you to a decent jog. But its not really designed for running. It doesn't have hand rails to hang onto, or padding to cushion the stride.

It is not a GPS mapping device. It is a runners watch that will five you distance, time, pace, average pace, calories burned and heart rate (with heart rate monitor).

Yes it will work but the baluns are very limited on distance. I have a run less than 50 feet and I had issues. I would try it for your application and just see if it works. If not return it.

According to the product's manual, it's possible! But remember according to the amazon website "When paired with the HRM-Run monitor1, the Forerunner 620 provides feedback on running form by measuring cadence, vertical oscillation and ground contact time". You could use another belt (garmin's), but probably losing this informations. There is one more issue the price of the total equipment is $449 and without the HRM $399. After that, to buy only the HRM Run it will cost you $100.

Do you use RunKeeper currently? If so, expect to have to do a manual export/import to get it to take. Also, MySports desktop app still locks up for me everytime I sync (have to close and reopen/resync). I didn't care much for the MySports website, but I already use RunKeeper anyway. It's completely comfortable, and sized just like a normal digital watch. I REALLY want to like this watch, and I still kinda do. If you're not in a hurry, I'd recommend holding off until/if they fix it... as it seems to be one of the best out there for the price--once it's all working. I'm holding out hope for it, but will be watching my return window closely.

Distance running possibly. Sprints no. The elastic is strong and is adjustable. Don't drop it though because the arms that hold the light onto the band are fairly brittle and will snap easily. The unit is light enough so for a cheapo light it will probably work.

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

It does. I have since upgraded my iphone 4s to a 5s. This required me to buy a lightning converter for the dongle. I have since started using the MiCoach xCell : http://www.adidas.com/us/product/running-mi-coach-x-cell-and-textile-strap/VL450?cid=Z51350&breadcrumb=1z11vmgZ1z13071Z1z11zrf and the Bluetooth smart compatible speed cell: http://www.adidas.com/us/product/training-bluetooth-smart-compatible-speed-cell/AE019?cid=G75090&breadcrumb=1z11vmgZ1z13071Z1z11zrf There are much more convenient. and on sale at Adidas right now.

As far as I know, it has lap time, overall time, transition time (triathlon), and I think it could give you time per activity (running, bike, swimming). What is that you want to measure?

Yes - but the case is JUST the case. It's the sensor that syncs w/ Nike+ iPod...Nike+ Running is the better app for runners though.

Yes it counts strides, and calculates strides per minute and so on. When you upload to Tomtom My Sports and Map My Fitness you can see a variety of graphs, diagrams, maps and data. Don't worry, it's all there!! :)

Yup, is just an estimation. However, you can update the actual distance after the run

use the sports setting (picture of runner on dial) - that setting provides rapid release function
