Forgot to add that the instruction booklet says it was printed in January 2013.

Thanks Eli, though a newbie like me wouldn’t have known the colors without your advice and Ray’s.

Thanks. I sent you a photo of the box via email. Remarkably, the box and insructions don’t say HRM 3, though the UPC code matches what you sent to me. The box was sealed with tape so I otherwise wouldn’t have known if I had the correct hear rate monitor. So much for Garmin customer service.

Comment on A much better USB ANT+ stick for your Garmin Forerunner…by Suunto by xgravity23

Thank you so much for posting this!!! I have gone through 2 Garmin Ant+ sticks–they just stop working, not sure why–but I’m hoping this will have a longer life, and I was sold when I saw the lower profile of the Suunto stick. I was afraid I was never going to be able to connect again and not be able to analyze my data at the level provided by Garmin Connect, but as we speak (figuratively), my 405 is sending data through the Suunto Ant stick!

Comment on Week in Review–May 19th, 2013 by Nick Williams

Hey Ray, I started reading your site a couple of weeks ago and I’m really enjoying it, especially the race reports.

Before I started using your site I got an Ultrasport Navrun 500 to use as my first GPS watch. I can’t seem to find a review of it on your site or in the Guardian article you linked. Is it a company that you’ve had much contact with, and am I loseing out on anything by using it as opposed to a similarly priced (£80~$120) gps watch?

Thanks

So let me get this straight. This is an entire review of the Suunto Ambit 2? There’s NO mention of the countdown timer information. What gives?
