I've been dithering about getting a Runner's Watch. It's tech, and I'm a techy, so it was meant 'to be'. But there are so many to choose from. But in the end I just had to!
Decided on a Garmin Forerunner 235. Should come middle of next week. So now I have to keep going, I'm invested.
Nice!! You'll love it!! And you can't stop now... 
GARMIN!!! 😬😬😬
I wondered when you'd show up... xx
I’ve set up an alert for whenever the word Garmin pops up. 😂
Love it - I have the older less fancy 35. 😊
Phew! I was worried from your reply to @sallenson that it might be Garmin....Yuk!
He’s just jealous. 😬
You'll always be young and fancy to me tho
Don't be alarmed by Ripcurlrana71 my friend. "Ripcurl and Garmin" is our equivalent of "Piggy and Truffle". She is obsessive about hers. But it's done wonders for her...
Need to also give huge credit to my Brooks Ghost too.
Oh no!! It's the acceptance speech again. Run and hide, everyone xx
‘And my wonderful svelte runner friends from the health unlocked forum’ xxx

Looks smart! I’ve got an Apple Watch and I really need to understand how to use the workout feature on it 🤔
It's going to be my everyday watch too, so it needs to go with the cassock.
🙏🏻
Nice. Still can’t decide whether to get one or to upgrade my Apple Watch to a newer one. Fortunately I can’t afford either yet so I can decide slowly!
You're going to wow your parishioners with that!!
Make sure you don't play with it when you should be writing your sermon tho
Well done theoldfellow, well deserved and I really hope you enjoy it!
That watch looks hot!
Wow, looks cool! I’m sure you’ll love it when it arrives, and it should look great with that cassock.😎 As a non-techie, I’ll stay content with my Fitbit (it matches a hospital exercise test on heartrate, so I’m happy with that!)
My Graduation present isn’t going to look as impressive - but I decided I really did want a C25k graduation T-shirt! (I ordered it optimistically after W9R2...) Having been disappointed to find no one else at the local Parkrun seems to list their club as NHS C25k, when it arrives I’m going to run my Parkruns in it with pride! (Who needs a swanky local running club vest!) 😃🏃♀️🏃♂️❤️
Hey, that's a great idea! I might do that too. The difficulty is to decide to get one that fits me now, or one that I hope will be right when I get rid of the beer-belly.
The link for the Tshirts is here if you want it...
My daughter has one and loves it
Is this better than using a smart phone with a starava/ Endomondo type app ?
More convenient for me - and it records and displays heart rate. The only way I found of measuring heart rate on the phone was not something that I can do while running.
Guess what I ordered the same watch from Argos it’s my graduation reward. I’m wearing it now put my forerunner 35 on eBay
Great minds.....
Yes my graduation present
Post-grad run. Oops!
First Post-Grad Run!
So today I got my reward.......
Kit ordered, app downloaded, starting Thursday!
