Hey friends!

I am looking into buying a heart rate monitor. I want one that I can use while running to track distance and calories burned. I also want to be able to use it for all other exercises to help me keep track of HR and cals burned. Suggestions please?

    I have a Garmin Forerunner 310 Xt that has a heart rate monitor. It downloads my route to my computer and tells me distance, max pace, average pace, average heart rate, max heart rate and calories burned.

    Thanks! There are so many out there and they are expensive. I like hearing opinions.

    Garmin Forerunner for sure. I did the comparisons back when I started running longer distances. It's the way to go.
