Anyone Know? asked:


I’m aware of something pre installed called Nike + iPhone, or whatever, but I don’t like using accelerometer-based measurement, due to natural inaccuracies when your stride distance changes during periods of increased / decreased pace.

So what apps / methods are you aware of?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

I’m looking into purchasing a gps garmin watch. I’m just curious as to what is the difference in the two watches. I have read that people have had some issues with the 405. I didn’t know if maybe the 405cx corrected these issues. Thanks!!!

I’m after a heart rate monitor to use when running outdoors and want one with a GPS function so I can record distance and speed. I’ve been looking at a Polar RS300X and a Garmin Forerunner 405.
I would like to be able to use it with a site that would plot a map of my runs too.
The 2 main problems are that I would like one with a reasonable battery life, and I use a Mac, rather than a PC.
Any suggestions?

Hello, I really want to be able to track how far i run.

I want to buy some reliable gps software so that i can track the miles that i have ran, for example the Nike ipod nano devices.

Any shops in England sell anything, fairly low price range.

Thanks

What are some good models to track distance and other features that are cool out there in some models that put them above others significantly. Also, how much does it cost to operate? Or, how much does the GPS service cost?

Raquel C asked:


I am about to start training for my 3rd marathon and would like to invest in GPS watch to tell me my pace/distance. I know the Garmins are popular, but also expensive. I don’t want to buy a watch that has more functions that I need but I do want a reliable watch that won’t loose satellite signals easily. Any suggestions on what to buy or not to buy?
