Forerunner 970

Love my new Forerunner 970 🤝

Hope this helps anyone curious about the Race 2 and how it stacks up against other Suunto devices as well as Garmin’s Flagship Forerunner 970.

Hello Everyone,

After a week of overthinking on a thought of becoming a reddit reviewer I finally decided to pull the plug and will be posting many reviews of different tech products and shoes i use for my running starting with the one closest to me- COROS PACE PRO or in general, Coros brand.

Moved from FR 965 3 month ago to pace 4. The whole coros system is miles better than Garmin. You won’t feel the quality like you do with with your 970 but the price difference between the watches you can’t expect the same build quality, but the pace 4 is extremely light to the point you don’t even f

I think if you’re okay sacrificing the torch, the Forerunner 965 could be the best fit for your use. It’s almost half the price of the new 970, has great battery life, and still gives really solid fitness/running data. The 970 does have the latest Gen 5 sensor, but for the most accurate readings, yo
