RE: Steemit-runners: I need your advice

in #runningproject6 years ago

thanks for your great suggestion- yay, I have a plan! It sounds like a good mix of distance and speed in addition to something I am already used to. It makes good sense. :) Recently I have run 4 times a week, but that's really just because of all the bank holidays in May. Over time 3 is more realistic. If you have any recommendations on running watches I'd love to hear them. Not wanting to spend a fortune, but if I am to invest in one I think it should do more than just count the number of steps. Thanks for your general encouragement - being part of the runners society here is a great motivation for me. :)

Hey @lil-mich no trouble at all...We are all pretty keen to help and look forward to hearing about your future running. Give me a day and I will give you some details of watches that you could get.
Regards @run.vince.run

Me again, I found this post and it gives a really good list of cheaper watches:

I have owned the TomTom and the Garmin Forerunner 25in the past and currently use the Suunto Ambit 3. it gives you a good list of watches at different prices with different features as you may not be interested in GPS or heart rate as yet but a good stop watch will help with your training.
Shout out if you have any questions.

Thanks for the list @run.vince.run! 😄 I’ll look into it when I get home from work. I feel I could easily get carried away with functionality (which perhaps I wouldn’t even use) so it’s good to have several options. 😄
