Garmin Forerunner 210 GPS-Enabled Sport Watch with Heart Rate Monitor (Electronics) I've only logged about 30 miles with the Forerunner 210 since I got it a couple of weeks ago, but it's definitely an improvement over my phone GPS, which I was using previously. It really is incredibly simple to set up and sync with Garmin Connect. What's even better is that it seamlessly syncs it to Runkeeper, which is the app I've been using for years, so I can continue to track all of my runs in one place (and it couldn't be easier -- RK has a plugin that connects directly to the device via USB and imports the map and all data including heart rate).It never takes me more than 30 seconds to locate satellites and the heart rate monitor is also super simple (just put it on and the watch detects it). I debated whether to get the heart rate monitor and I'm SO glad that I did. It's already shedding a ton of light on my training routine.Also -- it's not dainty, but I'm a small woman with small wrists and it doesn't look ridiculous at all. Just like a pretty serious sports watch. I'm generally really pleased, and would recommend it for sure.The only reason I give it 4 stars is because you can't customize the display to easily switch between current pace AND average or lap pace (I believe other more expensive models do this, so it's a little bit of "You get what you pay for" but it seems like it should be easy enough...) Also, without that option, I usually just set it to show my lap pace, which is available on the Forerunner 110. I thought I'd really want the current pace option, but I haven't been using it much at all. If I had it to do over again, I might have gotten the 110 with HRM. That said, I haven't used the interval settings and other bells and whistles yet, so maybe I'll update this after I do.
