I upgraded to the Garmin forerunner 55 to the Garmin forerunner 255. I think this is a great stepping stone into the more advanced running world without dropping $1,000 on the newest watch. So far, great battery life, great new features, love the big watch screen, and accuracy is much better compared to the forerunner 55. Great purchase! Worth the money

Get the watch!
Absolutely purchase. Life is too short not to be able to look back at all the amazing activites you recorded on your watch! I use daily for activites regularly exceeding 2 hours and charge once a week at max. Takes at most an hour to charge to max. Don't go anywhere without it!

Love Garmin
Bought this to replace a very old Forerunner 955 that broke. This is better than expected. It is used daily for running and swimming in a lap pool. I needed something that was going to continue to have a fairly accurate GPS and in run pace and this is great.
