Garmin Forerunner 205 GPS
My everyday running partner.

Ranked #360 - Trail Running Accessories
April 1, 2009
I bought this watch about 2 years ago to keep track of my runs, and it works super good. I have ran with it all over the US: Northern and Southern Utah, Florida, Massachusetts, Colorado, and California, and have never had a problem with getting reception. It doesn't really work that well indoors, but you can still track your splits. There are a bunch of functions for speed, distance, elevation, and route finding. The only big difference between this model and the 305 is the heart rate monitor and $100. This is the only GPS I've used, but I have no desire to shop around.
