Discussion: anyone use a Garmin Forerunner 305?
Subject: anyone use a Garmin Forerunner 305? By: Eric M. Written on: 2006-06-18 03:42:20 Message: I'm an all-in-one kinda guy...my printer is a fax and scanner too. just a thing i guess. the timex has gps but not cycling functions whereas the polar has cycling but not gps?!? garmin looks to have both and a pretty comprehensive personal trainer function set as well. my question is...how is it for user friendly? Do you have to have a masters degree to decipher the data? Being new to this type of training, is this ONE piece of equipment going to provide ALL the necessary information for smart, effective training? how is the PC software for completeness, helpfulness and ease of use. and how does the bicycle attachment thingy work? the bottom line...is it worth the $$$?
