Battery life is a big deal - mine conks out after @7 hours. Good luck if you're on even a moderately-long hike or competing in an ironman.

    Garmin Forerunner 610

I have run with my new Garmin Forerunner 610 watch 2 times so far and I have found that the battery life is a farce. I ran a 10K in 43 minutes and it drained about 50% of my battery life. I charged it overnight to completion and then ran for 1hr and 22 minutes and it drained 80 percent of the watches battery. So it is not even going to last for a 2hr run. This watch is useless to me when I do longer runs. Something cant be right. My Garmin 305 lasted a long time in between charges. I think I would stay away from getting this watch.

I have one of these, really good and the GPS works perfectly but it's heavy - can really feel it after a 12km run.

    All other sports watches

I am a new runner and I recently bought the Forerunner 610 because I wanted a watch that would motivate me as I start my running routine. I love this watch because I do run/walk intervals and I can do this while still listening to music since the watch has vibration alerts based on customized intervals I create ahead of time. There are soooo many features on this watch it's crazy. I want to run every day now!
