I want to get my boyfriend a watch that measures the distance he runs for our 2 year anniversary. What would you reccomend?
Cant be too expensive, im 16.
He runs varsity cross country but lost his a while ago, and i know he'd love a new one.
Answer
It sounds like you want to get him a GPS watch.
An alternative to that is the Nike Sport band which is only $60. it uses a sensor you attach to your shoe laces or put in a nike + shoe. Not as accurate as a GPS watch but they look cool, plus they get you onto the Nike + site.
The cheapest GPS watch I know of it the Timex Marathon. It's about 100 bucks and not really that great a watch. And I'm thinking $100 is probably out of your price range, anyway.
As an alternative, you might get him an ipod shuffle.
A similiar idea is that a lot of runners need a watch with an interval timer. The Casio Men's W756-1AV Digital Sport Watch is only about $20 but is a great watch for the money.

Distance Running Watch?

I am looking for a running watch that calculates the distance I run. Would prefer for it to be under $100.
Answer
The only watches that will calculate distance tend to require GPS. There are some things that will work off a footpod, but they're essentially just a fancy pedometer.
You might go a tad over $100 for something like a Garmin Forerunner 205 or 305, but those are probably your best options these days.
