* The [[Garmin 620]] is a lovely watch, but it's more expensive and you can't get your current pace from a [[Footpod]].
* The [[Garmin 920XT]] is the first of the Garmin watches to support downloadable apps using [[Connect IQ]]. This provides the type of extensibility you get with apps on a smartphone, and could be revolutionary.
* I rather like the [[Suunto Ambit2 R]], which has some nice features at a reasonable price. The more expensive versions of the Ambit2 are worth considering, but I would avoid the updated Ambit3. (The biggest change with the Ambit3 is to use Bluetooth sensors rather than Ant+. At the current time there is far better sensor support for Ant+ than Bluetooth.)
* Consider using a [[Running With A Smartphone| Smartphone]]; if you already have one they are a cheap option and can have outstanding [[GPS Accuracy]].
