The runner’s watches are the timepieces used by the runners or athletes who want to keep a check on their progress. That is why they need a runners watch. A runners watch is a multi-function device which is quite helpful to the pros in improving their performance.
The most basic thing to the runners watch offers is a memory function to record mile times in races or lap times in speed sessions. Many running watches also have countdown timers. These aren't essential, but a good one can help a great deal when you're doing repetitions. On top of that, the watches vary in terms of extra functions - some more useful than others. |
They cover the board from dual-time clocks to a pacing option on one watch which you can set to beep 150 times a minute. The good news is that most of the models are surprisingly easy to use, with prompts on-screen telling you which mode you have entered and what happens if you hold down a particular key. Don't be so dazzled by functions that you forget the real basics - is the screen readable at arm's length, and are the buttons easy to use on the run? The watch you choose will also be water-resistant, and have a stopwatch, a wake-up alarm and an electroluminescent backlight as all these functions are commonly found in a runners watch. The leading brands are Timex, Polar, Nike, Adidas, Casio etc.
