SUUNTO RUN

This out-and-out running companion concentrates on the bits you really need

- [Words Dan Grabham]

Suunto's lightweight running watch slots in under the Race S and Race 2 models as a more entry-level option.

It doesn't have a load of superfluous fitness types (it still has 34 modes, mind!) and isn't for multisport events – as such it's an out-and-out runner that goes up against Garmin's less expensive Forerunner watches, such as the 165. In short, it offers everything the vast majority of runners would need – ideal for parkruns or track runs but not triathlons.
