Garmin Forerunner Recommendations?

Featured Replies

Guys, I want to get the wife a forerunner, as she's obsessed with working out. Any recommendation on models? There's a bunch, and it's hard to tell which are worth it. I'm happy to spend up to $300.

Suunto makes some products for that as well that are quite good, but also pricey. Might want to check those out too.

I really wish my wife had gone with the Android like I told her to vs a Blackberry. I downloaded an app for my Evo called iMapMyRun, which does everything a Forerunner can do (save heart rate).

 

It's nice to go out on a run and know exactly how far you are going.

Thanks, man. I wound up going with the Suunto M5 and the foot pod. This will be perfect and much more suitable for her workout schedule (gym rat every morning, runs on weekends).

I use the Nike fit chip. My sister uses a GPS watch and loves it. I know Motorola just came out with an android one today.

I actually switched it up one last time and went with the Polar RS300x, and it's doing the trick.
