Since my time to run alone is so precious I was needing to make the most if it. I usually just head out on my run and have a rough estimate of how many miles I was running and didn't really worry about time. This is a very relaxed way of training. I am not looking to break any kind of records here, I simply want to cross the finish line of my race and enjoy myself. But I felt I was needing a little bit of a push to get through my runs and track my progress.
So recently I purchased the Garmin Forerunner 10. I have been wanting a running watch for sometime now, with GPS to track my running routes and be able to pace myself. This does that and so much more! It counts my calories as well. I love that I can look down at my wrist and see my pace as I am going. It seems to motivate me to want to continue at a certain pace or push me to go faster. Plus I see how many calories I am burning which also motives me to want to push myself a but more.
This style comes in a few fun colors (pink, purple, black) and is not too big and bulky. Because what lady doesn't want to still look cute and sporty while she is running!! Am I right ladies??!
I will also wear it when I am walking with my son or when we go hiking as a family this summer. It will track how far we go and how many calories burned!
I definitely recommend this watch for any kind of runner or even walker. It is user friendly and will help you with whatever running/walking goals you have this summer! Check it out!!
I love telling my friends about new things I am learning about. Whether it be about my experience being a new mom, running, fitness, fashion, home decor, new recipes, health. I just want to encourage other moms, and woman out there by sharing the things I am doing/learning and being transparent. So thanks for reading my thoughts and following my blog!
