Excellent watch for all athletes
Could not have been happier with my Garmin watch . I am a runner and I needed a watch with long battery life , GPS distance tracking and music to keep me company , without having to carry my phone on the runs . This watch meets all those criteria . It gives statistics of heart rate and zone together with speed per mile in the Connect App . It also tracks your sleep pattern which I find useful to monitor. Garmin is the gold standard when I comes to fitness watches . I had another forerunner before this and the only reason I upgraded was to get the music feature . Highly recommended over any other smart watch for its long battery life and accuracy
