Again for me light and reponsive, they wear well too. Just bought my second pair after 500 miles with the last ones, bought them in the box and went for a 15 mile yesterday, brilliant.......

None for me.
Overall:
Ran two new pb's with the last pair over the half and full marathon this year...............I can't say any more

'Well worth the money..................'
Strengths:
Bought these shoes on the recomendation of the reviews in the last edition of RW...........They fit well cushioning and stability are great, have ran approx 100 miles in them with no complaint and the price is a lot cheaper than the Kayano's a shoe I have ran in exclusively for the past 3 years. They are lighter as well
Weaknesses:
None as of yet
Overall:
A great shoe presented no problems on the 26 mile training run I did today, overall very impressed

Garmin Forerunner 305 
Posted: 07/01/07
'A GREAT PIECE OF KIT'
Strengths:
GPS connects fairly quickly. Seems to be very accurate on distance. I also use this on my bike and it works a treat. Helps to motivate me, my carrot if you like.
Weaknesses:
Haven't found any yet...........
Overall:
This is my first running watch and all I can say is what a beauty, worth every pound. A bit of advice I found from someone else on the forums was buy the 305 on eBay, I did this and it cost me £190 delivered from the U.S
