1. A lace adjuster assembly for selectively adjusting a shoelace of a shoe of a user, the lace adjuster assembly comprising:
a lace adjuster that is adapted to allow the user to selectively adjust the shoelace of the shoe of the user, the lace adjuster including a body assembly having a first body member and a second body member that is movably coupled to the first body member, the lace adjuster being selectively movable between an unlocked configuration and a locked configuration, wherein the shoelace is adjustable relative to the lace adjuster when the lace adjuster is in the unlocked configuration, and wherein the shoelace is resiliently retained by the lace adjuster and is inhibited from being adjusted relative to the lace adjuster when the lace adjuster is in the locked configuration; and
a sensor assembly that is mechanically coupled to the lace adjuster, the sensor assembly including (i) a first sensor that senses a first performance characteristic of the user during an athletic performance, and (ii) a storage device that is configured to store the first performance characteristic sensed by the first sensor;
wherein the first sensor and the storage device are positioned within the body assembly of the lace adjuster.
