About the Garmin Forerunner 10

Ken Nail

Every second counts

If you're going to invest the time in a running program, why not get the most out of your sweat and toil? Most experts and coaches agree that monitoring and recording your training time and miles is one of the keys to improving your performance and your health. Garmin's Forerunner 10 GPS running watch may be the perfect tool to meet your needs. The FR 10 doesn't record heart rate — you'll need to step up to the Forerunner 210 or better for that — but if you're just beginning your exercise program, or want a simple, no-frills watch, this watch may be just what you need.
