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

Runners watch for high school kid?

greenfrogt

My niece is in high school and she runs track and cross country. Her birthday is coming up and she's talked about getting the Nike + Sports Watch GPS, but I think that's an over kill. I'm looking for a runner's watch that can tell her mileage and such, but does not have a GPS, because I don't think that's necessary. Can you help me out?

Answer
Well, most watches that will track your mileage have a GPS in them because that is the way that the watch track his far you have run.

However, Nike has a watch that has a foot sensor that you put in your shoe that tracks the number of steps you take. If you calibrate the step distance correctly, you can get an accurate distance that you have run. These watches are also significantly cheaper then the GPS watches out there.
