 Garmin 305 is AWESOME!! Mar 11, 2010
I love it. I love it. I love it. I bought the 305 to replace my Nike+ Ipod running system. Garmin 305 blows the Nike+ away in every aspect. I became extremely annoyed with the NIKE+ sensor's inability to find the IPOD and the frequent loss of signal during a run.
If you are a person who likes information during your run, the Garmin is for you. I set up the main screne to show distance, pace and total time. Took a few runs to decide which categories provided the most relevant information. Garmin has increased my speed, knowledge of my performance and analysis following a run. I am now more aware of my natural increases and decreases in pace during a run. For instance, my 2nd mile in a 5k is always the fastest, so now I have learned that I should pick up the pace when I get the 2nd mile beep. I also set the Garmin to beep at me if my pace falls below a certain level. Often I start daydreaming and slow down. Then I get the beep and kick the pace back up. I love it that I can check my pace at any moment and analyze overall performace after the run.
My complaints about 305 primarily involve initial setup. It is a little tricky to manipulate/customize some of the features. However, spend an hour or 2 setting it up and you won't be disappointed in the results. For example, it should be a default setting that a lap is equal to 1 mile and that the watch will beep at each mile. I also think the Garmin's default ranges for classifications of slow jog, jog, slow run, run, sprint, etc are a little unrealistic for the average runner, but probably accurate for the above average runner.
Overall, I couldn't be happier with the Garmin 305. Everything that I wanted to customize was relatively easy to accomplish after a few minutes of tinkering.
 So far, So great Mar 10, 2010
Too bad you can't swim with this thing! That's okay, if you know that going in you wont be disappointed. Havent found any problems just yet! For the price, I dont think you can beat it.
Great GPS, Not a very good HR monitor Mar 09, 2010
I really like the GPS for tracking my runs. I also like the pace zone alerts. If I drop below a certain pace (or above a certain pace) it'll beep at me. I believe it has lowered my long run times because of this feature. There are too many features to discuss but I also like exporting my workouts to Google earth and seeing exactly where I was. Neat stuff!

This watch is GREAT Mar 08, 2010
I absolutely love this watch. I was a little nervous about buying it after reading some bad reviews but I am soooo glad I bought it. It is true, it takes some time to acquire the satellite signal but I have not experienced a drop in the signal.
The GPS is very accurate. I mapped my route before running and when the watch said I was done... I was done! You can set it to let you know when you reach certain distances. I have mine beep every mile and it helps my runs along. Also, I love breakdown it does, on the computer and the actual watch. Based on your settings it let's you know what your pace was for each interval, your average heart rate, and your max heart rate. Another plus is that it is very easy to load my runs from my Forerunner 305 to my [...] profile. And based on the information you can plot different parts of your runs against each other.
I must say I just LOVE this watch and you should definitely get one!!!
It works great Mar 07, 2010
I bought it about 3 years ago, and it's still kicking. Love to store all my runs on the Garmin Connect web site.( the maps are cool)I used it in all seasons with no worries. I just came back from a hike in cold, wet weather. still working . got my money worth and then some.
