I cook Iclean Posts: 2716	Hi all! Does anyone run consistently on here? If so, which running watch do you suggest? Brand, etc? I would like to find a watch to use while running so I do not always have to carry my phone around. Thanks in advance!

I Prefer a Beard Posts: 1944	What kind of options are you looking for? I love my Fitbit blaze for running. I use it for 5k's 10k's and have ran a couple half marathons. I also use it for my training runs and to track my exercise at the gym. If you want one with a built in GPS Fitbit has the surge. Edited by caspersabelpip 2017-05-21 1:42 PM

Expert Posts: 2457	you might throw out there a price range too .... I use the Garmin Forerunner 235 with a built in heart monitor, which was important to me. It has the ability to time intervals and the GPS is very accurate for my long runs. It saves my data and once a week I download it to my Garmin app. I can run with it, swim, bike, or use it indoor on equipment or just a HIIT workout. The fitbits are nice starter watches. Polar makes some great watches too that are a bit lighter and less bulky than the Garmin's. I would encourage you to read some of the reviews that runners world has free published (they constantly keep up on the newest tech) to see what options and price range best fit your needs. Good Luck!
