A system of monitoring weight of a person includes a plurality of pressure sensors integrated with a shoe, for generating wireless signals responsive to weight of a person wearing the shoe when walking or running over ground. A processor processes the signals to determine an improper walking or running event, and a transmitter transmits a signal indicative of the improper walking or running event. A remote receiver receives the signal and generates an indication of the improper walking or running event.

1. A system of monitoring weight of a person, comprising: a plurality of pressure sensors integrated with a shoe, for generating signals responsive to weight of a person wearing the shoe when walking or running over ground;a processor electrically coupled with the pressure sensors, for processing the signals to determine an improper walking or running event;a transmitter for transmitting a signal indicative of the improper walking or running event; anda remote receiver for receiving the signal and generating an indication of the improper running or walking event. 2. System of claim 1, the plurality of sensors selectively positioned with high impact areas of a foot of a person wearing the shoe. 3. System of claim 1, the plurality of sensors positioned with the shoe or insert at contact points for one or both of a ball of a foot of a person wearing the shoe and a heel of the foot. 4. System of claim 1, the processor configured for processing the signals to determine one or both of weight distribution and force distribution over the person's foot. 5. System of claim 1, the remote receiver selected from the group including a watch, a cell phone, an MP3 player, a pager, and a personal data assistant. 6. A system of monitoring weight of a person, comprising: a shoe and a plurality of pressure sensors integrated with the shoe or an insert for the shoe, for generating signals responsive to weight of a person wearing the shoe when walking or running over ground; anda processor electrically coupled with the pressure sensors, for processing the signals to determine improper walking or running of a person wearing the shoe or shoe insert. 7. System of claim 6, the plurality of sensors selectively positioned with high impact areas of a foot of a person wearing the shoe. 8. System of claim 6, the processor configured for processing the signals to determine one or both of weight distribution and force distribution over the person's foot. 9. System of claim 6, further comprising a transmitter for transmitting a signal indicative of the improper walking or running to a remote receiver. 10. System of claim 9, the remote receiver selected from the group including a watch, a cell phone, an MP3 player, a pager, and a personal data assistant. 11. System of claim 9, the remote receiver generating a visual or audible warning of the improper walking or running. 12. System of claim 9, the remote receiver providing corrective feedback regarding the improper walking or running. 13. System of claim 9, the transmitter comprising a transceiver, the transceiver transmitting the signal to the remote receiver upon receiving an interrogation signal from the remote receiver. 14. System of claim 9, the transmitter transmitting the signals to the remote receiver responsive to real-time signal generation by the sensors. 15. In a shoe, the improvement comprising: a plurality of pressure sensors for generating signals responsive to applied weight;a processor electrically coupled with the pressure sensors, for processing the signals to determine improper walking or running; anda communications port for sending a signal indicative of the improper walking or running to a remote receiver. 16. The improvement of claim 15, the pressure sensors integrated with the shoe. 17. The improvement of claim 15, further comprising an insert for the shoe; the pressure sensors integrated with the insert. 18. The improvement of claim 15, the communications port configured for transmitting the data to the remote receiver upon receipt of an interrogation signal from the remote receiver. 19. The improvement of claim 15, the sensors selectively positioned for proximity to high impact areas of a foot of the person wearing the shoe. 20. System of claim 15, the remote receiver comprising a second processor configured for processing the signal indicative of improper walking or running to determine one or both of weight distribution and force distribution over the person's foot. 21. System of claim 15, the remote receiver selected from the group including a watch, a cell phone, an MP3 player, a pager, and a personal data assistant.
