do you know of any good dependable heart rate monitor watches. i mainly want to use it for running?

AJ

i might also use it for swimming but mainly for running, and are there any ones that are rechargeable. nothing to expensive, unless its completely worth it.

Answer
The basic Polar (FS1) is a good and reliable heart rate monitor. It isn't rechargeable but the batteries last a very long time.
If you want to spend a little money you can get monitors that have more functions and Polar is a good buy. I've had several different brands and the best for me was Polar.

What is the best running watch?

Q. I am in high school and I am looking for a cheap running watch that will do the trick. All I really need is a stop watch, although I don't want a regular stopwatch because it cannot go on your wrist and is a pain to run with. The extra features are not necessary and I'd preferably like it less then a hundred dollars although if its really good I would be willing to go a little over. Any recommendation would be great!

Thanks and God Bless

Answer
You don't need to spend more than 20!
Best running watch for under 100 is also under 20
Casio Men's W756-1AV Digital Sport Watch

Not only is it under 20, its loaded with features. I wouldn't buy a watch for running that doesn't have interval timers and this one has 9!

Another good interval timer is anyone of the timex Trainer line

If your budget is a little over a hundred you may want to look into GPS watches and HRM watches.
The cheapest GPS watch is the Timex marathon for about 100
and the cheapesst HRM watch is the polar f6 for about 60
