Folks,

I was looking for opinions on the reliability of commercially available GPS
systems as a training tool. I have been using a Garmin forerunner 305 for a
while, but one had to be returned (problem communicating with PC) and the
replacement recently became waterlogged while running the Lower Yough at a
fairly tame level. Are there alternatives out there to use - preferably Mac
compatible? Have others had any issues with the 305 on whitewater? Any
opinions/reviews would be much appreciated. Also, what do people think about
using GPS systems - valuable or not versus a standard HRM? I'm very disappointed
with my experiences, but would like to hear of others.

Cheers

Chris
