GARMIN 010-00466-00 Forerunner 205 GPS Receiver
Amazon.com Review
Just when you thought Garmin had cornered the market on powerful, affordable, and effective wrist-mounted GPS devices, here comes the Forerunner 205.

Forerunner 205

Great marathon training tool!
The watch works great and has a lot of really useful features. The only complaint I have is that it sometimes takes the watch several minutes to locate the satellites.

helpfull
Even though the pace timer is a littly jumpy I have shaved about 15 sec off of each mile. I have used the computer tracker to alter my Platoon’s PT plan and all have improved.

Such a let down!
I kept this product for 1 day before returning it. The nike/ipod sensor had better distance accuracy than the gps unit.
