I'm going to be starting Field Hockey pre season in about a week. I need to track how many miles I run and I need a good watch that does that. I don't want an expensive watch, I just want one that can tell me how far I have run in miles, maybe calories i burned, and of course time.
Answer
I believe Timex makes a GPS watch (around $50 I think, a watch that would give calories would up the price considerably. Figure 100 calories per mile. Also if you have a watch that gives you the time, mapmyrun.com will give you the exact distance. Go for a run, go to the link, enter your address (if that is where you are starting your run form), a map will come up and you can track your route and get exact distance, even changes in elevation.

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.
