Forerunner 970

**TL;DR:**

Rode 205 km solo in the summer heat (33 °C max). No cramps, no bonk.

Key to success: early start (5 AM), strict fueling (80g carbs/h), smart pacing (mostly Z2), salt tabs, and short but consistent breaks. Didn’t taper, didn’t carb load but had a solid base and lots of planning.

Hello everyone, since many people seem to be interested in the new Venu 4 and there aren’t many user reviews yet, I thought I’d share my first impressions of this watch.

I actually downgraded from a Forerunner 970. The FR970 is a fantastic watch in itself, but I initially had a massive ghost-touch

I’d been waiting for something that looks exactly like the Suunto Race 2 - slim profile, beautiful display with titanium and

I’ve only had the 970 since EOP Tuesday but I’m in love with this watch. The thing is, I tried the FR 265 not once but twice and ended up sending it back or selling it and getting another Apple Watch. My Apple Watch Ultra 2 is now sat on my bedside table ready to be sold. Here are some positives and

I just got up my long-term review on my channel and I cover not only standard stuff like the overview and specs, but a decent bit of testing as well – comparing the Balance 2 in perf

Searched far and wide for a watch to, at the very least, compliment my Apple Watch Ultra 2. I’ve tried the Fenix 8 Amoled, Epix Gen 2 Pro, Enduro 3, and Fenix 7 SS, but I think I’m gonna be very happy with the forerunner 970. Got it with the 20% discount, so at a much more reasonable price but with
