well worth it - a difference makerApr 20, 2008
By T. ORourke
I was given a Garmin wrist GPS (not this model) a few years ago by good friends who knew how much I loved to run. At that point I was no longer competing and was running for fitness only. I was disappointed in how well it worked - it was always losing the signal and the pace it displayed never seemed right, but it did measure the distance more accurately than my estimates and showed me how slow I was really running. I saw Garmin had released this new model and it looked like they had corrected all the problems of the old model, so I got one. They have. While the battery life is a little less (a full charge will give you about 10 hours of tracking), the pace is very reliable and the distances are amazingly accurate. It also gives you fairly good altimeter readings and lets you link to software that can help you analyze the run minute by minute (I don't use that much). It has been a great help as I try to push myself a little more and to get more objective data as to what I have accomplished. I am ordering one for my sister today....

Great Device for RunnersJan 15, 2010
By L. Busch
"book snob"
I recently purchased this product to replace my Nike Sport Band. This is a much better product, very easy to use and 99% accurate.The watch is little heavy at first, but band fits comfortable on my small wrist. If you are a runner like me and need to know exactly how far you run outside this is the product for you.
