GPS Watch or Compass Watch (runners)?

ranka

So, which would be the better of the two between a gps watch and a compass watch to in running in places you have never been before (trails, mountains, etc.) and could easily get lost?

Answer
Garmin GPS watch.
The Garmin 310 has a great battery life and will do what ever you want.
There are others if cost is a issue. You'll expect to pay around $200-$300 for one.
Don't go to cheap. You'll kick yourself for not getting the features you wanted.

Speed and Distance watch for runners?

Punaboy_10

I want a watch that accurately records my distance ran and my pace each mile. Thats it! I dont need a calorie counter or heart rate monitor. I dont want to spend a rediculous amount so $50-$70 would be nice. Are there any watches with gps within this price range? Im tired of trying to track my distance by driving around in my car Please help.

Answer
well, i think you are looking for something like NIKE TRIAX or TIMEX MENâS 1440 SPORT DIGITAL WATCH...

I can suggest others but i guess you are also concerned with how these watches look.

i got those price from http://www.runningwatchreviews.com/ .. i think they are just around $15

there are plenty of other reviews there, list of features, prices and other stuff i guess you need to see them.

By the way, runners are so inl ove with garmin, i saw one from http://www.garminforerunnerblog.com/ but yah, that's pricey..

Hope that helps
