Distance running watch

2 watchers

Forrest Hump Mar 2012 1:24pm, 22 Mar 2012 First-time poster!!	0 Forrest Hump Hey I was wondering if anyone knew of a cheaper running watch to measure distance other than a Garmin which are quite pricey. I can see watches for measuring laps but I want a pedometer style watch and I don't think a lap timer would be suitable. As a novice I would be glad of some assistance. Thanks, Han
