Garmin makes the very best running watches (and other wearables) for serious runners.
Garmin is offering Eastern track and cross country runners and their families (along with Eastern staff) a huge discount on many of their running wearables from Garmin.com.
Anyone who asks my advice about running watches gets the same advice, the Garmin Forerunner series are the best watches for serious runners. The series includes entry level watches (45/55) all the way up to high-end. The watches all include buttons (not touch screens that struggle in wet/sweaty conditions), GPS functions, wrist-based heart rate monitors, and smart-watch functionality.
Watches in the series:
Forerunner 45- $199.99 regular price, $99.99 Eastern Discount Price (50% off)
Forerunner 55- $199.99 regular price, $139.99 Eastern Discount Price
Forerunner 245- $299.99 regular price, Eastern Discount Price $149.99 (50% off)
If you are feeling fancy they offer 255, 745, 945, and 955 at 30% off list price too. Several coaches use the Forerunner 245. In my experience it is the best value.
