Just wondering if anyone has advise or suggestions on buying a garmin running watch?
What one is good?
Is there a good Website to purchase from?
Any positives or negatives in relation to them?
Any thoughts, comments, suggestions welcome
Thanks
Sonja

Hi there, I currently have the Garmin 201 forerunner . It is pretty good although it is 2X bigger than the average watch. It can store 3 years of data, full GPS. The only thing that it is missing is the heart rate monitor. You can now get a Garmin 305 (wrist watch size whcih you pay for, although exchange rate is 1.41 US dollar to Euro) and it has it all. You canget them off Amazon. just watch out that you get one with "USB" and a european charger. www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/105-8253387-8379627?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=garmin+301 |

You did read the dimensions ?? . More like your 13th birthday radio controlled car. Hmm, let me think , did they even have radio controlled cars back then, did they even have watches. Hard to know what to compare it to !! from your time. Maybe the size of a decent gob stopper , you remember those. We had those on the sweet counters until they killed a few kids.
