running watch heart rate distance image
SportyGirl
I'm a runner and am curious which watch is the cheapest but still tells me my distance, pace, and heart rate while I'm running. I looked at the Garmin Forerunner. What do you all think of those?
Answer
If you want to get that technical, then you are going to have to go with....
1. Polar watches... Those will give you everything you asked for. The only problem is they are not cheap, but still cheaper than all your other options... (No watch is cheap that gives you distance and heart rate)
If you don't want pace or heart rate... but great splits, durability, and easy to use....
1. Timex watches... plus they are cheap in price... Very durable, just not very stylish at times...
2. Nike watches... Great to use and do it all, I would rank these as one but... Problem, they break very easily and you have to send them in to fix which equals more money... The outside of the watch(plastic) will fold and rip apart after the normal wear and tear of a runner using it.. Very bad...
Hope this helps...

I am looking for a watch which measures my heart rate, distance etc... Or an iPhone app?
ALICE (Aus
I run around 7-10km daily, and currently use a pretty average iPhone app called "iMapmyRUN" which isn't very accurate.
I want to be able to see my heart rate, as well as record my average speed, distance etc. So that I can see the results in front of me and try to improve them. Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Answer
Heart rate you'll have to get a watch, an app cannot measure it, for average speed, something like Nike+ measures and tracks your progress.
