I invested in a Garmin Forerunner (which is great for any type of training), but a simple Timex will do too.
You can even invest less than that. I currently use the Nike+ system for what i need....works like a charm.

If you have an iphone or ipod touch....all u need to do is spend $25 for a foot sensor.
If u have a nano, then its 40 bucks...or go on craigslist and find something.
If neither....then the Nike sportband for 80.....but i would actually invest in the timex or garmin. For the price point of the other two items, its a great price for what it does. But the sportband is too basic and its not gonna be much more for something that does a lot more like the Forerunner.
