Surprised how bad it was
Knowing Garmin's great reputation for products, I was disappointed that my Forerunner 101 was such a poor investment. I probably only used it 10 times before the plastic molding that holds one of the strap pins in BROKE. And I certainly was not...

Love it
The Forerunner works great. I love knowing exactly how far I've run. I thought it might be too big but the size is fine. I usually forget it's there once I get going. It would be nice if it was rechargeable but for the price I can afford to...

Great Motivator
I recently picked up one of these Forerunner 101's from Amazon and I have to say that my running (or at least my desire to run) has increased since getting it. I have to run for my yearly Air Force fitness test and I traditionally have hated to...

Good and Reliable
I bought this from amazon after having a real bad experience with the Navman 300 which I got from Marshalls. The Navman 300 had a weak display that would cut in and out and the device at times would freeze up and would not display the correct...

Excellent tool for monitoring jogging progress
The Forerunner 101 offers the ability to use replaceable AAA batteries. I use a set of NiMH rechargeable AAA batteries that last for about 1-2 weeks worth of running. The GPS takes awhile to lock onto a signal from a cold start. The longest it has...

Great basic GPS
So far I love my GPS. I didn't need anything fancy or complicated to use and this does exactly what I need as a runner. It accurately records my mileage as I run. I live in a very small town and have not had any problems with GPS signals.

Good beginner gps for running
I had my Garmin 101 for 3 years. I just upgraded to the 205. If you are looking for a good entry level gps and trainer for running, walking, etc. this is it. Enough bells and whistles to keep you going for a while. The only draw back is if you...

Good Entry Level GPS for runners
I bought the Forerunner 101 after considering the more expensive and smaller models. I got it to see if I would use it for training.

Very useful tool
I use this device frequently to log my mileage and average speeds. I have found that I can only get about 2 weeks worth of battery life from rechargeable 750 mAh AAA batteries. It takes its sweet time locking onto GPS satellites during a cold...
