This is a true running tool. The data is accurate and far more detailed than other brands. I used to have to carry my phone with my prior smartwatch to get semi-accurate GPS data, this watch is perfectly accurate on it's s own. I am using the Garmin connect to develop a training plan which so far has been very helpful. Garmin clearly makes the best watch for runners.

My son loves it! This was a great purchase from Best Buy! Not the typical smart watch - looks great and does everything a college athlete would like for it to do!

Analyzing a highly beneficial sport like running with a science-based watch and creating a training plan accordingly is, in my opinion, extremely important, and this watch fulfills that training system very effectively.

Wanted a replacement for my classic Garmin Forerunner 310XT but with a capability to last long during my very long hikes, expeditions along with wanting body vitals around VO2 max, HRV, real-time heart rate monitoring.
This one provided what I need and really happy!

This seems to be the most comfortable and size friendly watch diameter for a woman to wear, the watch provides all the important functions plus a few bells and whistles, with reasonable sale price - the model to remember to purchase here is the S series.
