Men's Garmin FR60 Foot Pod and HRM Bundle

Comments about Mens Garmin FR60 Foot Pod and HRM Bundle Monitors:

I am a sub 2:50 marathon runner and triathlete and I love my new F60 with footpod. Looks great, durable, waterproof (both footpod and watch) lightweight, easy to navigate, accurate foot pod once calibrated, 3 fully customizable display option with 5 pages per sport, comfortable wrist band. Don't panic if the footpod is way off the first time you run, after calibration the accuracy went from 93.75 percent to almost 99%. I would strongly recommend this product to those who value a sporty looking running watch that gives them instantaneous pace.

Having trouble setting up for time and distance and manual is not very helpful. Can anyone assist?

Great watch. If the technology is similar to my old FitSense watch, the accuracy of distance is influenced by barametric pressure and running speed after calibration and possibly by temperature and humidity. It will probably be greater than 90% accurate.

I often find my gps is long on a race course - and this isn't gps technology. It's hard to run the tangents to avoid running long since a certified course has to be at least the advertised distance. Calibrating this will make it more accurate.

OK as HRM and pedometer; after sync with computer, displays Memory Full. All History deleted. Useless; no response from Garmin after 4 days. 5K race distance was 3.48 on watch.

Amazing watch. Perfect for competitive training and long races. I especially love the pace alert feature which makes every workout a major cardiovascular benefit. Easy to use with a simple interface. Font size may look big at first but is perfect during mid run when a glance is the only time you have to check your distance and pace. Worth every penny.

I use this when I run outside and on the treadmill and love it. With the heart rate monitor I know weather or not I am pushing myself hard enough or not. Since I have started using it I have cut my run time down by 2 min.s in the past month. I also like the part where you can pretend like you are running against or with someone. I have had this a month over in the desert and have not had any negatives so far.

Use this properly and it can be your best friend.

The only con I've found to the FR60 is that I have to switch the foot pod around because I run in 2 different pairs of shoes. However, the GPS watches have to be recharged every few days while this one's battery life is much longer. My GPS never works in my car because of all the trees over the roads in Savannah so I worried about that problem with the watches as well. Also, a lot of the Garmin GPS watches do not do intervals.

I'm wearing the product each time I run whether it's on a treadmill or on the road as I train for my upcoming (first) amateur women's boxing match. I really enjoy seeing what my pace is (something I've never known before) and the large display so I can see while I'm bouncing around. I can't seem to work the lap counter so when I walk, it shows up as a REALLY slow run. My friend (an avid runner of about 40 years) gave me this, my first heart rate monitor and I'm forever greatful. Just help me use it!

I have bought GPS and a Polar device (which was fine) But if you like to run inside ,the foot pod is excellent. It is very accurate, unlike the old Polar I had you don't have to calibrate it. The GPS devices, are very expensive and my FR60 is excellent. I run 5 days a week and log on with training[@] and use the software that comes with it as well. I would highly recommend this, and get a additional foot pod if you multiple shoes. It is what you need

The FR60 is an incredible workout accessory not only for anyone who bikes or runs, but for anyone interested in tracking their workouts over time. Workouts are wirelessly downloaded to the Garmin Connect website where you can see heart rate, pace, distance, and many other cuts of data from your workout. I used to have the Nikeplus wristband, and this product blows it away. Really helpful in preparing for marathons, triathalons, etc. in helping you maximize your performance.
