I like it! Unfortunately it's not yet manufactured in Brazil. Got mine with an American and I'm very satisfied!

micoach pacer
I just figured out how to use the pacer bundle not to long ago. Didn't start out good the first couple of times i charged it fully the battery lights would not turn off had to wait for the battery to die before getting it to work again. But now its working good and i do enjoy it. I did notice that you could walk, run or bike but is there a rollerblade option for the micoach as well. If not something to think about.

Data data data
I began by using the mobile app and progressed to the micoach. I enjoy the system because of the amount feedback it provides. I can track my progress and watch as my achievements grow.

miCoach Pacer Bundle
The Adidas miCoach Pacer Bundle works great. I found the products to work very well together along with the Adroid and Windows software to connect to the miCoach website. I have found this to be very helpful in giving guidance while working out and the data collected to be helpful and motivating to keep improving. I recommend this to anyone that works out on their own and wants to improved their cardio strength through interval running.

Stops working quick
I was very excited to get this product, and it worked well during my first run. It shortly stopped working and I had to reset it. It hasn't worked well since and it won't even record or speak to me. Waste of money in my opinion.

tempermental
I have had to do the paper clip thing way too many times, I think.
I do like the feedback, and the way the zones are determined. I find it very useful in making my runs more effective.
overall a good product, I wish I could combine ths with the garmin 305

Helped me complete my first marathon
I purchased this over a year ago to help me train for my 2nd half marathon and months later for my 1st full marathon. This has helped me increase my endurance exponentially. I have also increased my speeds. I am able to run a 5k in under 20 minutes for the first time. miCoach does make you run faster and further. The voice alerts are extremely useful at instantly notifying you to change your speed if necessarily. The recent additions to the miCoach firmware has increased the activities from not just running to also biking and many sports. This is great for biathlons, but not triathlons because you cannot swim with it. The pod, pacer and heart monitor are lightweight and do not weight down on you while you run. The heart monitor strap is comfortable even over long distance. I have ran with it for over 3 hours and it didn't cause any chaffing or rash.
Cons: All of the cons I have experienced are technical.
1: The USB design using a 1/8 audio jack for data transfer instead of a standard micro USB port can cause confusion at first. I know i am not the only one who, after a long run, has put the USB jack into the wrong port on the pacer. (I guess they did this to save money /make it cost less) A wireless alternative Option will be nice.
2: The foot pod is only semi accurate and may need to be calibrated. this can be done on the website easily. But you must be able to compare it to exact known distance, like a track, course or GPS. The difference in minimal; less than 0.02%. over long distance (like marathon training) in can add up to a huge difference.
3. It requires you to have headphones in, well not really, but it can be difficult to setup "free" run without headphones. There are no indicators on the pacer itself to tell you your current status. Not a multicolored led to show you your zone, or LCD for your heart rate, distance or anything. I wanted to use this to track some of my free runs but because of my circumstances I cannot have headphones in. I bought a GPS watch with a LCD screen for this reason. You may not want to wear headphone while running on the street so you don't get hit buy a car.
