Review of Garmin Forerunner 305

Hi, finally I bought Forerunner 305. Before I was user of Polar, but I was missing distance feature, so I switched to Garmin. I’m middle age male in average physical condition (pure amateur).

Installation on PC was fast and easy(MS WinXP). After installation, check Garmin website, I found newer USB drivers and newer version of their Garmin Training Center® software. Menus on device are very good (three different) and they are fully configurable with parameters that you want (also level of details). Other screen are GPS signal, map etc. Your profile could be updated with age, weight, heart zones, more or less it can be full personalized. I installed client for MotionBased, you can use same user as for myGarmin.

And then , heavy rain for last two days and I can’t run …

I’ll continue to write about my usage of this nice device.

I now I’m sick
