I would like to buy the Navman R300 in order to monitor my progress in running. I usually go running three times a week, about 7-10 miles each. I would like to trace speed, distance covered and eventually calories burnt and similar. What do you think about the Navman R300?
Do you think I should consider a HRM like the Polar RS200SD instead? I think that the Navman could be better for me (compact, just one small unit)... but I am not positive on what to do...

I'd say unless you're in a rural location with few trees, you shouldn't consider a GPS without a Sirf Star III chipset or similar quality, otherwise it will simply not keep a good enough lock on the satelites to be useful.
I don't know if there are any tailored to running. I always put a regular GPS in the camelback.
Thank you for your help... I usually go running in a park 10mins from my home. It has big trees on the left or right hand side of the path.. Would it be a problem with the Navman or other non Sirf III unities? Thanx! :-)
