Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I like the phone notifications on my Garmin. If my phone is in my bag I don't always hear it ring and I'd never see text notifications. It's been really useful to know someone is ringing so I can get to my phone before it goes to voicemail :-)

Anything simpler than a Forerunner 35? I don’t use a lot of the features on mine

My Garmin 735 started losing accuracy with HR so I ‘downgraded’ to a 55. It still does more than the 735, I like the ‘body battery’. I don’t think it does multisport, and workouts might be limited, but I don’t do much running now and have an Edge for my bike.
I turn off watch notifications but I do like the vibration for a waking up alarm.

Got something to say?
