Garmin Forerunner 305 Heart Rate Monitor

Unlike other heart rate monitors that includes a separate accessory for the GPS, the Garmin Forerunner 305 is a one-piece device that also does wireless heart rate monitoring. It includes a powerful GPS receiver that tracks real-time location anywhere around the globe. And among the Garmin devices, this is also one of the brand’s first few models that is compatible with the Training Center Software that allows the user to upload and personalize your workouts. It is also compatible with Garmin’s Motion Based service that lets you connect to the internet and share courses and maps.

Pros: So many features suitable for elite runners and cyclists. Cons: Bulky, but powerful.
