Does anyone have recommendations for a STRAPLESS heart rate monitor - Brand/model? I currently have a Polar watch, but it requires a chest strap. I find it to be uncomfortable and it often quits tracking heart rate mid-run.

I'm getting the FitBit Charge HR that promised to have an accurate heart monitor.0

I've got a TomTom Runner Cardio which I found on Amazon for $249 including shipping and taxes.
HR is accurate but you need to wear it tighter than a regular watch. GPS has been very impressive, it acquires in seconds.
So far, very happy with it.0 -

The alternatives are all wrist mounted, so more sensitive to fit and equally uncomfortable.

Assuming you are female then Victoria's secret do a sports bra with a HR strap built into it. Might be worth a look?0

I disagree, i have a mio alpha , yes it does have be on firmly but not so much that its uncomfortable, i often forget to loosen the watch when i have finished ( i normally wear my watch quite loose)
Streets ahead of a chest band for comfort.

I've got a mio link, works, comfortable, but have to remember what each colour lights mean, if I'd had the money at the time I'd have got a mio alpha0
