Does anyone know if theres a watch or something along the lines that you can strap to your body and it calculates distance run ?

iPod nano has that Nike fitness stuff built-in if you fancy paying 20 quid for the sensor. There are loads of ios and Android apps (Runkeeper. iRace etc.) if you fancy carting your phone around.
One of the exercises I was given for shinsplints was to put a training pole on the floor about 3 feet in front of you then hop over it and back with alternating feet first.
