Get your TomTom on in 2014

Trying to get fit in 2014, but struggling to find the inspiration, or knowledge to go on that much-required run? The TomTom GPS powered Nike+ SportWatch (find them here for $169.00) is the next stride to rid you of your running burdens. This innovative gear will not only equip you with the ultimate tracker, but the built-in personalized coach will motivate you onto a healthier and better you. I, myself, am embarking on a new journey towards a fitter body. But like most people, sometimes I feel discouraged to go for that morning run. With Run Reminders and recognitions for your runs, anyone will feel more willing to go on that frighteningly despicable run.

These smart watches are available in a wide range of snazzy colour combinations.

TomTom’s handy watch has a Nike+ foot sensor that tracks your every stride. Not only does it mark the distance you have run, but the GPS sensor inputed into the watch also tracks where you have run. The best part of this device is that all of these convenient features are in a compact form of a wrist watch. Lightweight and durable, this device will surely alleviate some of the running anxiety that the majority of us feel at the start of our 2014 journey.

Sure, this watch may seem like a gimmick, with all of its neon lining, modern screen and that renowned check mark. A watch will suddenly not thwart your displeasure for running. But sometimes the little things are what makes going the extra mile worth it. We all make resolutions that we “promise” to keep in the new year, but most of us need that extra push to keep running towards our goal. Perhaps, your push in 2014 will come from the convenient proximity of your own wrist.

Technology Editor Hello World! It is quite difficult to summarize a human's character with only a few words. But here I go; I am a movie buff, a sushi fanatic, Korean, diligent, a student, an animal lover (especially dogs), a Taekwondo athlete, and amiable (within my own head) ...well I guess that was not too exhausting. I enjoy writing about everything. But more recently, I have discovered a passion to report on the best weekly finds in the realm of science. I sincerely hope many of you will stumble upon something to your pleasure, while reading my blogs.
