Investing in quality running gear - what's actually worth it?

Shoes: you can absolutely spend less (long term) by spending more once, as some brands last a lot more kms/miles than others. Don't cheap out on this as it will also help prevent injuries and will make you enjoy running more. Try some models in the store. From my experience, higher-end brands like N

So many new watches. Which watch is best for backpacking?

I'm an ultra runner first and foremost and I'm currently using a Forerunner 255, which is great, but if money was no object I'd get an Enduro.

Garmin watch

I got my fenix 7 pro ss about 2 years ago and paid about 450ish for it. It has been amazing, worn every single day and has never let me down. The mapping in your wrist is amazing, the watch has been durable and the added flashlight is something I thought was gimmicky but I now don’t want to live wit

Wie Geld sparen bei Laufuhr?

Was heißt sparen? Willst Du ne Luxusuhr günstiger oder eine möglichst günstige Uhr? Persönlich bin ich Fan der Forerunner 255 - ist von den Features her top, kostet aber recht wenig. Gibt es auch für etwas mehr Geld mit Musik-Feature.

Thinking about switching from Garmin to Coros

I switched from a fr255 to a pace 4, i am running , cycling and record gym sessions. I love the simplicity of the pace 4 and the light weight, as well as the coros app, which to me looks a lot nicer compared to garmin connect. I kept my fr255 but will probably sell it. I dont think the coros is nece

Garmin Watch

The forerunner 255 is a great option if you can find one. It’s got everything you need with lots of fitness metrics and multiport options and music. I sadly lost mine but I still think it was one of the best purchases I’ve ever made (great bang for the buck!). The only con for me was the lack of vis

What running watch are you wearing?

I have a Garmin Forerunner 255 and I like it. I don't use it to receive calls, pay, listen to music though, I just use my phone for those functions.

Thema Uhr

Achte vielleicht auch auf die Größe. Ich bleib aktuell bei den kleinen Forerunner-Modellen, weil mir die Fenix und co schlicht zu "klobig" am Handgelenk sind. Persönliche Präferenz - aber vergisst man ja ganz gerne mal. Ich lauf seit 2 Jahren mit einer Forerunner 255 Music und hab mich damals auch d
