Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Lots of people use Garmin Forerunners but there are lots of models to choose from!

I got one last year and absolutely love it. Have never had any trouble with it finding satellites (have run with it in fog, heavy rain, snow etc.) and have never had any trouble with the bezel. Great piece of kit for £148.

I think the difficult part will be deciding which one to get!

My OH has a garmin 110 which is nice and simple and very easy to use.

I like my 110 very much - it's easy to use, I notice there is a newer basic Garmin now too which is a bit cheaper.

Yes - you can use Garmin connect, and you can also upload from the FIT files straight to Fetch (which is truly wonderful!)
