garmin One of our partner sites recently reviewed the new Garmin Forerunner 50, a sport watch which can be used for running, cycling and other fitness activities. The Forerunner website explains that the watch is available with a wireless heart rate monitor or foot pod, and automatically transmits workouts to your computer so you can analyze, store and share data using our online community. TFS writer Paul Petersen gave the watch a rating of “Good: 7.4/10.0.” Check out the full review at The Final Sprint.

It works pretty much as described. I used it on the treadmill today just to test out its accuracy, and it recorded a 3 mile run as being 3.2 miles. I’m thinking the treadmill must be the more accurate of the two, but I could be wrong. At any rate, you can calibrate the device so it’s not a big deal. The heart rate monitor agreed with the monitor on the treadmill, and the end calorie calculation was within 2 calories of what the treadmill reported.
