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.
