Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel treadmill with running form detection device. The device is an improved treadmill for detecting a user's gait, landing form, and arm swing, as well as other running biometrics on a treadmill. The treadmill with running form detection device comprises a treadmill having a body component with a plurality of sensors for detecting a user's running form. Typically, the plurality of sensors collect data on the running biometrics of a user, and the output of the sensors is then displayed via a display on the treadmill. Users can identify and correct their running form based on this output.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for monitoring attendance of people at organizer events, via payment networks, based on authorization messages generated in connection with such attendance. One exemplary method includes identifying an authorization message as an attendance message based on a program code included in the authorization message, where the authorization message further includes an organizer identifier indicative of an organizer associated with a location of the attendance. The method also includes identifying a person associated with the attendance based on the authorization message, and appending an attendance entry to an attendance profile associated with the person, based on the authorization message, whereby an incentive associated with the attendance of the person at the organizer is able to be allocated.
