If you don't need a heart rate monitor strap, but just the high tech GPS functionality, the Timex Ironman Global Trainer GPS T5K267 sport watch is identical to the T5K444 GPS watch, but does not have the HRM chest strap included and cost around $50 less.
The 5K267 can help you you improve your training and performance by monitoring and analyzing your workout. The T5K267 Speed and Distance monitor displays up to 42 training and racing parameters on the user configurable screen showing up to 4 parameter screens at any one time.
In multisport mode, 5 different screen layouts can be linked by way of "transition mode" reducing the time you spend changing from one sport to the next.
In the Timex Global Trainer's "Performance Mode", you can easily swap between screens depending on what you are doing during your training session or race.
This system is very convenient because there is no need to use a foot pod stride sensor or bicycle wheel sensor to gather speed and distance data when using the Global Trainer.
The Global Trainer has a "navigation mode" that provides current latitude, longitude, and altitude; the ability to save and list waypoints, and create and store routes, compass.
Road and Trail runners alike will find the routes feature useful, and trail runners may additionally use the compass and navigation features.
