    I just got a Garmin 210 and LOVE it!! I had tried using phone apps in the past, but my phone isn't as easily accessible/viewable while running, as having the watch on my arm. I have also previously used mapmyrun.com and other sites to pre-plan routes/mileage, but you can not beat the instant gratification and convenience of having the readout right on your wrist at any given moment. Get Garmin watch!! You will not be disappointed (as I had been with other apps and methods).

    Another Garmin fan here! I have the 205 (cheaper and I didn't feel the desire for a HRM anyway). I've had mine for about 14 months now and can't imagine how I ever ran without it!

    I used to use the Nike +iPod and found it fairly unreliable (fluctuations due to temperature) and had to re-calibrate it all the time, plus when the shoe sensor batteries died they weren't replaceable so you had to buy a whole new one.
