 Best device invented for runners July 18, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I travel a lot for work and typically while in an unfamiliar city I have trained for marathons in the hotel's fitness center on a treadmill because I am the type of runner who needs to know the exact mileage I am running and up until I owned the Garmin Forerunner that was impossible to know if I was unable to route out the course first in a car. I first used the Garmin in Hawaii - thank goodness for this GPS system or I would have seen the basement of the hotel vs. running along the beach every day!
It's also extremely easy to use!

I have really been enjoying the Forerunner 101 since purchasing it a few weeks ago. I love the freedom of varying my running routes without worrying about not having an exact measurement of the distance I've run. Here are a few comments about the product:
- After double-checking my routes in the car and comparing them to my Forerunner's calculations, it seems to be pretty accurate with distance measurements. It is possible that it is sometimes off by .10 mile or so, but that is usually close enough to satisfy me.
-It can sometimes take as long as 5 minutes to initially locate the signal. This is a minor inconvenience but one I can live with.
-It doesn't seem to be capable of picking up a strong signal with a lot of tree overhang. This is disappointing because I would like to use it for trail running and hiking.
-The AAA batteries work well as a power source. I purchased the rechargeable type of AAA batteries for convenience. One should probably keep an eye on the battery life indicator on the Forerunner and go ahead and put in a fresh pair of batteries when the battery indicator gets down to one line.

product arrived in timely fashion and was as described. would do business again. my husband found the device easy to read while running which was of utmost importance because he does require reading glasses for most things of this nature. it was also very accurate! great training device for runners.

This is a great gadget that helped me train for a half marathon. When using this watch I dont feel as though I am training by myself. When I see my pace has slowed down I know it is time to kick it up a notch. I also used the watch during my race. So helpful! Again, I was able to keep track of my pace and time to be sure that I was using my energy to its fullest potential. The only downfall is that regular AAA batteries do not last long. I only got about 4 hours out of brand new batteries. Keep an eye on battery life and it is a fun, helpful gps watch.
