Now go to the Mayo Clinic's website (<a href="http://bit.ly/dAFIOi" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/dAFIOi</a>) - link also in #2 above - and enter your age. It will tell you your target heart rate range. You can then set your HRM to beep when you hit the high end of the range so you know when to slow down and walk, and then set it to beep for the low end of the range, so you know when to start running again. Good luck! The main thing is to be patient and listen to your body (and the HRM). Great! Now go to the Mayo Clinic’s website (http://bit.ly/dAFIOi) — link also in #2 above — and enter your age.

My sister bought me the Garmin 305 and I love it. There are some newer models out there that aren't as klunky and look nicer, but the 305 gives me altitude, heart rate, distance, everything that I would want. Nice to be able to upload onto Google Maps and Earth, too. My friend has Polar and likes it. And I know folks who use an app on their iphone to track distance. They lack the heart rate info, though. I haven't tried anything other than the Garmin, so can't really talk about pros and cons other than the 305 works just fine for me.

You would think that it was obvious that I was doing number 4 actively, but all I've really done is compared current to my memory of the last few runs. I'm curious as to what watch you use. Pros/cons? I thought these were really good tips.
