What Functions Runners Need in a Runners Watch
Joggers who are buying a running watch are somewhat spoiled for choice, in an ever increasing market of sports timepieces. Almost all sports watches, to all intents and purposes, look like great running watches and it is only when you test it out that you can tell if it really meets your needs or not.
We tend to be wowed by the best looking watches, even when the functions are suitable only for runners. We may simply not realize what functionality we should be on the lookout for, yet without this information we run the risk of investing in a runners' watch that doesn't fully meet our needs, so before you begin the process of looking around, it is helpful then to look into the features that are helpful to joggers aside from a basic stop watch timer.
Firstly, you will very likely need a watch with running functions if most of the following points are true for you:
1) You take part competitively in races and are aiming to run faster
2) You do several longer runs a week, more than a half-hour
3) You maintain a fitness or running diary; and
4) At least part of the time, you do some form of repetition or interval training.
If you only want to jog a few times a week to keep fit, you don't need any more features than a stop watch and possibly multi-session history, but even that is optional. You should be able to comfortably get by with an affordable sports watch costing $10-20 with a basic chronograph timer.
Those that do more than just a handful of jogging sessions, will likely gain from some of the more advanced functions mentioned in the rest of the article.
Possibly your most important requirement is a watch face that displays digits that are clearly viewable at arm's length. One of the important qualities in a running watch is that an individual can view the digits clearly when you are jogging.
The second thing is, you will need a means of tracking individual recovery and repetition times when running over a fixed distance such as 200 meters. There are two basic mechanisms of recording times in a sports watch: lap/split time logging over one particular session, and multi session logging.
Lap/split logging is helpful for tracking time at significant points along your run, such as mile marks or lap times. Most modern sports watches let you record multiple laps per session, but less costly watches might not.
If you are jogging a lot, then a watch with the ability to record session history and a means of easy navigation through sessions by date will be practical because it will allow you to keep a history of runs in its internal memory that can later be copied to a training journal. Some watches even support downloading of data to Mac or PC and into electronic journal format.
Also, if you are likely to do timed interval sessions, say running 5 minute efforts with a 4 minute recovery time, then a watch with interval timer functionality will really assist you with this kind of training.
To sum up, the following features are needed or at the least very useful in a runner's watch:
1. A digital sports chronograph timer capable of recording session lap splits.
2. A clear, presentable digital display, preferably with extra-large digits.
3. The capacity to store and retrieve multi-lap session history and also the ability to transfer the data to PC or Mac.
4. Interval timer functionality that will run a series of countdown timers of differing lengths with a repeat option.
There are a great many watches that have all of these functions, but many do not, or only have some. Be certain to always carefully look at the features of a watch you are intending to buy to ensure that it is a good match for your needs.
