What it’s lacking in features it almost makes up for in its very elegant design. But if you are already in the Wahoo ecosystem from cycling, and want to stay within it for your watch, it’s a great choice. And we think this is more of a triathlon watch than it is a running one – partly due to the fact its standout feature is touchless transitions, meaning it will automatically sense when you move between disciplines. The company is still very young, and as such has yet to catch up with the features its more mature counterparts boast. The elemnt rival was released late last year and marks the brand’s first foray off the bike. Until now, Wahoo has been most associated with its (very good) bike technology, such as its cyclo-computers and turbo trainers.

Garmin does offer a range of other options within its forerunner line-up (from £159.99, ) that may better suit those on a lower budget.
Garmin watch faces configuration full#
For your money you’ll get: your music synced to your watch an almost befuddling amount of metrics on both your workout performance and your all-round health full maps to plot out your long runs and adventures a battery life that will last longer than you do and top safety tracking features. The 945 is fairly expensive, of course, but for that price you get premium design and top-level features. It packs just about every running-focused technology Garmin has into a shell that’s light enough not to weigh you down even on the longest run. The forerunner 945 is the closest you’ll get to the ultimate running watch.
