What performance watch brand do you recommend? I can't afford anything costly but I want to make sure I get something that will last. Going to start training for a 5k run in October.

    Mine is a Garmin and I love it.

    You're probably going to have to spend at least $150 to get anything decent, maybe more.

    Do you want a GPS watch or a running watch? If you just want to keep track of lap times, etc. then an inexpensive running watch would do the job. Mine was about $35 ten years ago and it still does what I need it to do.

    Do you have a smart phone? Because there are lots of good apps for a smart phone. I use RunKeeper.

    I have a droid so I guess I just need to get an armband for it. Thanks, I didn't even think about it.
