Another watch thread, Garmin specifically

[Anonymous]

Sorry for another thread but I'm overwhelmed by all the Garmin choices. My husband is a pretty serious runner and so far has only done half marathons but wants to begin training for a full marathon. I know he wants the heart rate monitor and the ability to track other types of workouts and also the ability to sync to mapmyfitness.

Which Garmin should I be looking for?

Track other types of workouts, like swimming and biking? Garmin 920xt

[Anonymous]

Not swimming, mostly biking but sometimes aerobic exercise too. Lots of weight lifting, not sure if that can be tracked.

He wont need the 920 unless he is swimming.


I have the 620 which has been updated to the 635. I use it for all of my running and to track heart rate and calories for when I do weight training. Either (if available) should suffice and is well worth the investment.

^^ Thanks, I'll look into that one.
