I am a runner and cyclist who has the Garmin Edge 800. I want to get the Garmin Quick Release Kit so that I can mount the Edge 800 on my arm while I am running. Is the Garmin Edge 800 compatible with the Garmin Quick Release watch strap? I know that the Edge 800 will always be sideways while on my arm though.
Answer
No, it won't work
The quick release kit is designed to allow the Forerunner 310xt to be adapted to the same bike mount that is used for the Edge 800, not the other way around

Where can I find a professional sports watch for running?

I want one that measures your pulse and how many steps you take and how far you go at what speed, is there any like that? Money isn't really an issue but cheaper would be good.

I really like Nike+ SportWatch GPS, I bought mine here:

I've run 6 marathons so far (a little over 1 per year), and always love to have new technology to play with during training. I bought the Nike Sportwatch shortly after it came out. I was not impressed. It really liked a lot of critical features, and the website was constantly having issue.
Multiple months and 600+ mileson it later, I'm happy to say that I really enjoy it. Nike has been incredible about this launch. Every couple of months they've continuously added more and more new features. The website is still slow, but they are launching a new one in ealy 2012. The new features on this watch put it among the best out there.
New features:
- Walk/Run timer (interval timer as well)
- Avg, Pace
- Improved Mapping
- Set time on the device (no computer needed)
- Incredibly fast satellite connection (even in the city)
- Auto calibration of foot pod
- Faster upload speeds to add your runs
- Integration with Facebook
All in all, a great watch. This one will work for new runners and advanced runners. The only people that this isn't a great choice or is ultramarathon ruuners. Battery life with GPS is 8-10 hours...not long enough for a 50-80 KM.
Having owned Polar RS800, Polar RCX5, Garmin 305, Garmin 310XT, and Garmin 210, I would put this up there as one of my faorites. The website is the best one out there, and the sites detailed training programs are worth using to achieve your best time yet.
