Watches with Heart rate & distance!
Hi guys,
I am just wondering what watches everyone would recommend that display heart rate & distance? And does anyone know the cheapest watch that does both?
Cheers every1.

The forerunner, does it come with everything you need, or do you need to buy the foot thingy as an extra?

No foot thingy required, the watch does it all, Hr, spd, distance, it will do splits also plus a ten ton of other stuff too, I have one and don't use half the stuff that is on there.

So basically, you'll be paying money for stuff you'll probably never use?
Erm, yeah that makes sense.

Yeah, that's the correct English spelling, Toesy. Please don't be tempted to use the American version (which doesn't have the "u").
American spellings are becoming increasingly prevalent due to the fact that all computer-based spell-checkers are based on American dictionaries.
