GPS Running Watches
Speed, Distance, Pace, Oh My!

GPS running watches are great for tracking speed, distance, pace, time and laps. Systems like the Garmin Forerunner 205 ($199) have virtual running settings that allow you to compete against your previous personal records. It also has a multi-sport function that allows you to track different sports like cycling.

Suunto Running Watches
The Suunto T4 ($300) seems to be getting some pretty good reviews. It's fairly accurate with the GPS foot pod and tracks just about the same info as Garmin's does. I think you'll find that Suunto is a great option, but might have too many features for a beginner.

Both are running watches with heart rate monitor and are probably the best watches for running. I'd also like to point out that there are a lot of great Nike running watches, but without GPS.

However, just like my iPod setup, they still record all of the important info like distance, time and pace.

PLUG
I support my growing family through this website.

If you find this GPS Running Watches page as helpful as a book you might have had to buy or a workshop you may have had to take, feel free to help me continue helping everyone.

If you've gotten your gear through one of my links such as Amazon or helped otherwise, you're family. It's great people like you who allow me to keep adding to this site full-time. Thanks!

If you haven't helped yet, please do, and consider helping me with a gift of $5.00.

The biggest help is to use this link to Amazon when you get your goodies. It costs you nothing and is a huge help. Amazon usually has the best prices and service, which is why I've used it since before this website existed. I recommend it personally.

Also, if you're thinking about building a website, check out Site Build It! It's how I built this website and more importantly started making additional monthly income.

Thanks for reading!
