best watch for semi-beginner runner?
I’d like to purchase a watch that does interval stuff, but I don’t need anything too fancy…I don’t care if it tracks how many calories burned or whatever. I’ve heard the getting a running watch with a GPS thing in it is good to log miles, but they’re kind of expensive. Right now I’m looking at the Women’s TIMEX® SLEEK 150 TAP SCREEN MID; I love the tap screen function and this seems good for intervals.
Does anybody have any suggestions for what watch I should get? I’m kind of a beginner runner; I run three to four miles a day but I’m going to start running more and start doing interval training. Thanks!
I use a Timex and it has never let me down and I have used it for a marathon and many long runs.
You can time up to 26 intervals and then recall the time and see how fast you ran each interval.
This is the newer version of the watch I use
