Hey all,
My wife's bday iscoming up and she has been running for 4 months now. She has requested a hrm monitor watch as she currently uses my 305 for her runs just to see her time/distance/pace.
She is not into gadgets etc she just wants something for the above mentioned functions and hr.
The 305 is on sale for 130 however she has little wrists and I think for herself she would prefer something less bulky.
She only runs so multiple funcionality is not necessary.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

I like the Garmin FR60. It's a new model, nice design, easy to use, comes in both men's and women's models.

You can get the Polar RS200sd for $150 on Amazon right now, including the foot pod.
that's a great deal.

I'm a total noob and picked up a Timex Fitness HRM for $99 + 15% discount I had at my local running shop. So far I love it.  I've read people having issues with Timex HRM's after you change the battery, only time will tell.
