I bought this and for £7 it is superb! Always been a t shirt and shorts bloke but I'm wrong side of 30 now and needed something to help with the artic wind. Thermals have helped on those longer runs or recovery runs allowing for a steadier pace without freezing.

Thanks for the heads up NS, theres a local decathlon near me so hopefully pick up one (or two) :)
 
Does anyone have a decent stretching workout to do before running?

I normally do about 30 seconds of hamstring stretches and calves before running but lately my legs have been painful after running 10/15k and was hoping properly stretching would actually help.
 
Im looking for a new running watch, apple one just doesn't give enough data I don't think, im looking at the Garmin Forerunner 745 or 945, which one do people recommend?

Only had a quick look at those two, butbif your thinking of spending that much, then maybe look for a deal on a fenix 5,
Im using a fenix 6 which is pretty much the same as a 5 but has longer battery life, it has all the data possible with a garmin, and you can download music onto it, so you dont have to take your phone with you when running.
I used to have a fenix 5 but upgraded it to a 6 as the battery will only last four hours on a run with music on, where the 6 will last for I think 12 hours.
Also if your looking at a fenix try and get a sapphire one as they are pretty much unbreakable, mines been in all kind of scrapes and theres not a scratch on it.

will that one give me all the running stuff the forerunner does (heart rate zones, how effective my run was, if rest is required etc?
