 		 This was our second purchase of the same product one for myself, the other a gift. I've had mine for 2 years with no issues and use it every time I run. I find it does take time to find the satellites however. Easy to use. Holds its charge for a long time. Great value.

 		 I purchased the Forerunner 205 to replace my Forerunner 201 after many many years of great use. The New 205 is quite big and the buttons are hard to push but it picks up the satelite signal MUCH faster and in hard to read areas like treed trails. Havent tried it in the city yet where the 201 was completely usless! It is also more accurate in pace and distance calculation. It does not have a HRM but is good value for the money for someone not hard core but still wants to track thier distance, times, pace etc. I run 20-30km/w and feel lost without it! Can't wait to try the Bike feature!

 		 Sweet. love the features. Quick to pick up satellites, great for logging progress. Absolutely fantastic software. Obviously designed by a number crunching runner.

 		 While it may not be as fancy as the other Garmin models, the watch is easy to use and fairly accurate, not to mention much more affordable. I run an average of 25 to 30 km per week and train for one to two half marathons per year. I never leave without my Garmin and I love going back to review the training I’ve done in the past (my distance, time, average speed and best speed). While you could fault the watch for being large and clunky, I would imagine that all the buttons make it easy to use and it certainly doesn’t bother me while I’m running. The only thing I’ve had to really get used to would be the slight delay in the data recording. For example, I could look down at my watch and see that I’m running too quickly when the truth is that I ran down a hill a hundred meters away and the watch hasn’t yet adjusted the pace.

 		 Great for running, hiking, and biking workouts. Gives me distance, pace, calories burned, and motivation to go further! It does everything I need it to do.
