Summary: Nice GPS for the price
Comment: The Forerunner 301 is a nice GPS unit for the price. It's fairly simple to use, but has a variety of functions for geeks who like to play with such toys.
A few issues that I have had with this unit though is the heart-rate monitor is a bit finicky and depending on where you are the GPS signal isn't the best, but these problems rarely occur. Overall a great buy!

Summary: Great Product so far!
Comment: I've only had it for a bit over a month, but it's been great so far! I love the results it gives me (Avg. HR, HR over time, Pace, etc); it's just what I wanted. The GPS map on the computer can be a little off (it can show your path as being in a river if you're close to one), but it records the actual path well, with respect to turns, etc. I have seen that some people have troubles getting the HR monitor to work (no HR shows up). This has happened to me twice, but by wetting the contacts on the inside of the chest strap and/or readjusting my strap (placing it lower or higher), I got the HR to show up again.

Summary: I love my garmin 301 forerunner wrist
Comment: Thank you for alowing me to share my joy with this unit. I love the garmin 301 forerunner wrist GPS. It has alot of features and not difficult to program. I choose this unit for the window size so I can see the information quickly. I use garmin forerunner 301 for a multiple of functions. First, I utilize the miles per hour to increase my speed in walking and running. It has a virtual runner in the window which will pass you up if you are not maintaining your speed. I also used the unit while I trail ride on my horse in the deep woods. It not only allows me to mark a spot, after riding some 15 miles, I then can re locate my original mark spot and it will direct me to the exact location. In addition it has a bread crumb picture that you can also follow. I had return from a ride just as it got dark and I used both functions to find my way in the dark and in the woods. Plus you always have the compass of north, south east and west. I love it and I use it a few times a day. It is true that the heart rate sometimes does not pick up. Just make sure the placement is correct and good contact. If you are active, you will love this. thank you.

Summary: Tighten the chest strap
Comment: I got a 301 when they first came out. I've used it for hiking, running and bicycling. Most of the time it works great. The heart rate monitor works for me only if the chest strap is really tight. And you must keep checking it every day. It loosens up constantly. It must be slightly uncomfortable to reduce the erratic readings. The pace read out is no good, so I just ignore it. I get better GPS results when I wear the 301 on top of my hat. Then I cannot see the pace number. I just set the unit to beep every mile and look at my stop watch. That's good enough for me. I live in the south SF Bay area and the only place I've been where trees are a problem is Uvas County Park. There are steep canyons there too. I've had great success transferring data to my computer. Nearly everybody says the Garmin Training Center software is unsatisfactory. Well, it's not great, but it works. I started running in 1969 and if I thought then I would have the function this unit provides in the future, my friends would have thought I was crazy. Of course, back then I had no such ridiculous thoughts...

Summary: My running+biking companion
Comment: I was looking for a bike monitor that could analyze my speed and distance. Went for a lookout of Polar products but they where just too expensive.
Found this alternative with gps tracking that not only gives you speed, distance but also elevation and hear rate monitoring.
When I took up running this was it, it has presets for both sports, counts your calories burned based on your age, height and weight profile nd gives you detalied info when you plug it on your PC.
ADVICE: If you use a Mac try using TrailRunner, it's a free app thet integrates with Google maps to give you a detail on your routes and keeps a log of your workouts.
