Garmin Forerunner 405 Running Watch w/HRM
I'm a new runner and learning to run involves a lot of training of different types to build multiple skills of speed, endurance, distance etc. I initially thought that this was too big a splurge item for a new runner, but this has helped me tremendously to improve my performance. I love that I can create custom work-out routines, run in a different city - flag the hotel as a GPS landmark, run then find my way back. The tap-bezel is mostly user friendly. In short, the watch has so many capabilities beyond what is explained in the User Guide that one should use the web resources to learn more about using the device. I love that I can upload each run to my computer and analyze how fast I went for each lap (which can be pre-determined to be whatever distance you like, mile, km, 400M etc.) my heart rate, speed, pace etc. The Garmin Training Center also shows the route taken and breaks the run by "laps" so you can analyze your performance over the entire run. This is a tremendous tool for a beginning runner. It has helped me enormously in improving my skill in only a month. I can only imagine the utility of this in the hands of experienced runners. For advanced runners, the Garmin Training Center has customized workouts that can be sent to the watch. This in essence, turns your watch into your coach. I can activate a "Virtual Partner" by determining my partner will run a 9 minute mile and I can see whether I'm keeping pace. The watch will notify you for each lap you run and displays information (which is customizable if you don't like the default) of Time, Distance, Pace and Heart Rate. As a new runner, I am challenged by starting off slowly and building to where each subsequent mile is faster and faster. This watch helps to keep me on track. For the quirks I've found with the device, I think it's mostly a case of the user not yet fully adept at the bezel and knob taps and navigating to the correct screens. I'm getting more adept at it's myriad features daily and with every run I love this watch more.
