Hello Ducks,
Still new to these running events.
I've been doing my own "training" / walking for 1 1/2 years.
Now coming into my 3rd Half marathon I am looking into getting a decent basic sport watches.
I think I would like something with a stopwatch, and another feature where I can set it for 1 minute/3 minute for run / walks. Is that what they call "split-time" ?? Maybe a pedometer feature also.
Any suggestions is appreciated. Nothing too fancy.
Thanks,
Colleen
I got an older Garmin 405CX off of e-bay. It's a bit more than what you are looking for, but I managed to snag it for less than $100 shipped and it also has the Heart Rate Monitor.
But I now have a "workout" programmed into the watch that basically says "for 13.5 miles, Run 4 minutes, walk 90 seconds" (I added a little extra mileage in case its' a bit off)
Caution to anyone that does get a Garmin product off of E-bay, make sure the Owner of the watch (or GPS unit for that matter) detaches the serial number from their online account, or else you won't be able to register it under your account and use the online features!!
