Man y’all are fast! I’m training for a half and just did my 8mi run for the last week. Really surprised myself and did it.

any recs on watches? I have a Apple Watch series 3 and was thinking about getting the new Apple Watch SE with cellular. The gps on my series 3 has been skipping a beat lately.

if you want something more run specific, think you’ll get the general consensus of something from the garmin forerunner/fenix line, polar watches and corros as well.

i made the switch from the apple watch series 6 to a forerunner 645 last year and there’s no turning back to using an apple watch for running again

I'd look into Garmin / COROS. I currently have a Garmin fenix 6X Pro. I was interested in getting a COROS, but the data doesn't sync to the Nike Run Club app. The NRC/Nike Running app has 80% of my all time mileage, so I'd hate to start from scratch. If it becomes an official partner, I'll consider jumping ship.

Garmin Forerunners have been awesome for me in terms of accuracy on GPS. They have a 945 LTE if you need cellular too, but that's also a top of the line watch. I love my Apple Watch (have a series 6), but most of the time when out on a run I'm throwing on my Forerunner 245 for better HR tracking and GPS performance.

Thanks guys! Yea it seems the forerunner 245/245 music was a top choice.

Edit: Any major differences between the 245 and 645?

illustrayt Wait, COROS doesn't sync with Nike Running App? Bummer. I was planning to get it to replace my Garmin 235.

T TerpRunner You've been happy with Garmin 245? I feel my 235 hasn't been reliable lately in terms of HR.

Wait how many people here are on Strava vs NRC?

Team Strava here

It feels like it's pretty spot on. I've had some odd spikes in the first 2 miles of almost every run that I don't get with my Apple Watch, but otherwise it’s super accurate

Last time I checked, nah.

Since Garmin syncs with both NRC and Strava, I’m on both. However, I’m only using the free Strava.

Garmin 945 is what I went to from Apple Watch. Battery is awesome, GPS is great and can still hold music.

This look like KSwiss Hokas…

 

[MRBW]

Glad I made the trip down to get these, last pair in my size. The only other size was an 8 I think.

 

[dukes23]

Really hoping I can get a pair on 12/1. Currently wearing the Speedgoat 4s (TINT) in the mountains and absolutely love them. Didn’t realized people were into Hoka this much, damn.
Upcoming Hoka Speedgoat 5 - looks promising.

 

[TerpRunner]

Made a determination that I’m using the Adios Pro 2 next weekend for my half marathon. They work SO well with my stride and I have minimal soreness afterwards even after really hard efforts.

How am I the only one that thinks these look like KSwiss?!?

I hope that it's the fastest shoe in the world because it doesn't look right.

 

[airmaxsk]

better pics of them that don’t look so ugly.

 

[sssstan]

broke out the adios pro 2 for my half today and loving them. PR today but more so due to the improved training but these are really good racing shoes. think ill still opt with the vaporfly for my full but moving forward these will be good for my half’s and tempo workouts

 

[s3p4tu]

I am curious if beer is the official drink post-race lol.
