 How can you not love this watch? September 5, 2010

I read both the good and bad reviews for this watch and realized that all of the gps watches 'appeared' to have shortcomings here or there. Shortcomings supposedly included accuracy, problems with the touch bezel and how long the battery lasted. But I went ahead and purchased this watch about a month ago, and couldn't be happier. I work out before work 4-5 times a week in the morning, and also follow up with a recreational walk/jog in the afternoon a couple of times a week. I found this watch very easy to set up, both using the menu on the watch as well as the software included with the watch. Measurement of distance and heart rate monitoring were very accurate. And after completing a 45 minute jog, the battery life was only down 7-8% consistently.
Another benefit of this watch is the software included with the watch. When I finish with my workout, and set the watch on my desk next to my computer, it will automatically upload the session data and display the workout summary. You can also see a history of your workout, which includes your minute-by-minute heart rate, pace and distance traveled. You can also upload the info to connect.[...]with the push of button and share the info with your friends.
I really love this watch and feel it is well worth the price. I works great and is feature rich in options. Garmin has done a great job with this watch!
A must have August 24, 2010

I should have bought one a year ago, perfect training tool! The quick start guide that comes with it leaves little to be desired when it comes to actual functions...make sure you have a friend who has one. But once you learn how to use it, its easy. Love being able to track the data on Garmin's website, love it! Its a must have for a person doing any training, cant be without it.
Great shop August 17, 2010

Before buying this Forerunner I had to run in specific places where I knew the distance. With the GPS I can run everywhere and it will inform me the distance run. The Garmin Connect feature at Internet is also great, you can store your exercises results and monitore your evolution. I fully recommend it.

I have logged about 150 miles so far with the device and I must say I really like it. I have not used others, so I have not basis for comparison. I find the GPS works extremely well. I like all of the features and the ease of uploading my results to my computer and/or the Garmin Connect website. It is not the easiest to use, primarily because it can do so many things and there are a ton of options. I have not devoted the time to customizing it for my personal taste, though I plan to do so soon. All in all, I am very happy with my purchase.
For what I need this is 5 stars! August 8, 2010

I am still learning how to use this watch to it's utmost! On an almost daily basis I use the GPS, heartrate monitor and timer/pace settings. I love the online tracking service through Garmin. This is a great watch. Each week I go online and watch another video on how to use the watch. There is always something new I hadn't thought of yet. I can't wait to try the course upload so I can follow the predetermined coordinates using my watch as my guide. Just what I need to keep me interested in my daily runs.
I am a bigger guy and my only complaint is the watch band is almost too small. I have to use it on the second to last hole on the band so the end keeper is useless. The velcro band is not a better option. I know, that doesn't really have anything to do with the function of the watch. Just thought I would mention it.
