Pigging in Out Columbus test
I just started again to run. I had a Polar HRM before, not a full chronograph like the 305. Because I was starting the “Couch to 5K” program with specific workouts I wanted to capture comprehensive data. The 305 does this. I read tons of reviews and user comments on a bunch of the newer Forerunners and the 305 does everything I needed at a very nice price. I also canvassed experienced runners – marathoners – and they all use the 305. Newer models have unnecessary bells and whistles like wireless connectivity to your computer. I don’t get the idea of that because you still have to have an ANT gadget plugged in. I have no problem plugging in a USB cable.
The 305 comes with the Garmin Training Center but I use SportTracks and find that combination with the Forerunner 305 to be perfect for logging runs and analyzing data.
Having my workouts monitored, logged and analyzed is like having the little voice in my head prompt me onward. I’m 66 years of age and with this motivation-assist I’m having fun getting back in shape.
