what is the best running watch for telling distance?

rangerrunn

id like to find one cheap for under 125 and id really don't know how it works all i want is to tell how far i ran and i heard i can get a watch with a odometer and maybe a heart rate monitor if i can find one with out a chest strap cause that would beannoying any help would be appreciated thanks

Answer
I think all heart rate monitors have chest straps unless I"m wrong. The new nike+ sportsband shows pace and distance. You can find it from the nikerunning.com store for $59. If you want a heart rate monitor, Timex, Garmin, Nike are some brands that sell nice heart rate monitors.

Hope that helps,

Any advice on running long distance?

Ivy

So the coach is putting me in 1600 meters and 2400 meters, I just want to ask if there is anything i can do to go faster and keep my pace up. I'm not used to breathing in to my nose and out from my mouth during running and I tend to breath from my mouth and out from my mouth. I just need any advice you people out there who has experienced running long distance.

Answer
Keep a steady pace, no matter how tempting it is to speed off with the group that pulls out first. Keep a watch on you and kinda try to monitor yourself and how fast you are going. If you keep steady paces (by this i mean running a 1:30 lap time for 4 laps or faster or slower depending on how in shape you are) I guarantee you will get a better time than if you exhaust yourself on lap one.
