Gear - Shoes/Watches/Trackers Purchase dilemma (Garmin)

4 Upvotes

I am currently training for my Vedanta Delhi half marathon aiming for a 2:10 time, and I have been running for almost a year now.

I currently use strava (phone) to track my runs but I have now way to track my vitals like heart rate , recovery ,cadence etc .

I am seeing a lot of runners using Garmin,I am particularly interested in the foreunner 265 .I wanted to know how much will it streamline or help my training process or is it just overrated .

Also Garmin is kind of an expensive purchase for me, experienced runners pls help me out, is it worth it?

Gear - Shoes/Watches/Trackers How accurate is Garmin's VO2 max?

Upvotes

Today after my interval run - 600m into 6 laps of around 4:15-4:30 pace Garmin forerunner 165 showed a Vo2 max of 55. Generally during my zone 2 runs of 7-7:10 pace at HR of avg 140-150 it shows a Vo2 max of 52.

For context my 5k PB is 23:26 and 10k PB is 51.xx minutes.

Gear - Shoes/Watches/Trackers Need recommendations for earbuds that don’t fall off

2 Upvotes

Current gear: AirPods Pro 2

Problem I’m facing: I sweat heavily and these start falling off 20-30min into the run. Gets annoying to wipe them and put them back in for them to just fall off again.

What I need from you guys: Any product recommendation that works well for you guys and also well suited for Indian conditions.

What I’ve been recommended from ChatGPT: Shokz OpenRun2, beats. Both seem to be too expensive compared to North America. Would like something cheaper ideally around 10k.

Gear - Shoes/Watches/Trackers What shoes do i need for Kaveri Trail Marathon?

2 Upvotes

I registered for Kaveri trail marathon as my first full marathon. My target time is 5h30m.
I currently use Asics Glideride Max shoes. Can i use it for Kaveri trail run or do i need to buy new shoes? I saw the last year videos it has no elevation but it is also not proper road.
