 It's Great! October 4, 2008
After running for the past year, I finally know EXACTLY how FAR I'm running, how FAST and how many CALORIES I've burned!!! This little gizmo really works great and gives me alot of incentive to keep up the good work!

The Garmin Forerunner 301 is not the prettiest girl at the dance but it works. The setup is simple, using the functionality and moving around the screens is intuitive enough. You get over the additional size of this model after about the first mile. More mature runners like myself appreciate the useful size of the display. Overall the Garmin is a great tool to improve your runs, and share other outdoor activities with others via "motionbased.com". Go buy one and go for a run!
 Great product overall September 28, 2008
This a great product. All features are excellent and data automatically transfered to pc once connected. My only issue is that it takes too long to connect the gps feature. There were no trees in the area and it still took about 8 minutes to locate. Other than that I was happy.
Great display September 15, 2008
Information very clearly displayed. Is super easy to use and is almost intuitively like a black berry. I use to run with a Polar and was never happy until I got this Garmin.

After reading the various reviews online, I bought the 301 and I absolutely love it!! It took only a few minutes to acquire a signal. I turned it on when I started my warm-up and it was ready before I was done. It was extremely accurate and measured my heart rate well. The online software was easy to install and use (though it installed more easily on my XP than on my Vista). The product does everything I hoped it would.
Prior to purchasing, I considered the newer 305. Even though the 305 has the ability to more readily read a weak signal and looks a little cooler, it also has a shorter charge life and costs twice as much. So I opted for the 301 and have no regrets.
