Polar RS800 SD -- take two

Posted by simon on 6/14/2007 on simon's blog

OK, that was my first mistake. Now I've installed the software that comes with the RS800SD and read up on the gizmo, I realise I can't really compare this with my old Garmin. The Garmin is basically a GPS with a heart rate monitor attached. The Polar RS800 is a total running computer providing more information than, at the moment, I know what to do with. :)

Going Polar --- with the RS800SD

Posted by simon on 6/14/2007 on simon's blog

We love our Garmins, yes we do: there's a Garmin Forerunner fan club among the members on this site, but... lately I've been wondering whether this trusty speed/distance and heart rate monitor is well overdue for an update.
