Polar RCX3 Review! A short glimpse into my new watch!!!

On Christmas, I got a Polar RCX3 watch, which I asked for, and I absolutely LOVE it. 

Polar RCX3 Watch, and HR sensor & Strap

Look at my 3 miler burn!

Now I'm sure other watches are great, maybe even better, but this watch does everything I need it to do. Seeing those calories tick away is all the motivation I need to keep at it. I've found that this watch has provided me with motivation to be even more active. Also, this is the first time I've ever really looked into my Heart Rate, and I feel like I am learning more about my body.

I will say that at first I was not able to get my Heart Rate sensor to pick up, which I think is because I did not have it correctly positioned or maybe just an early trial error. The other thing, which was completely my fault, was that I didn't realize I had to purchase a gps or stride sensor with it to track distance/pace. Figured that out right quick lol. So now, I have a gps thing headed my way. 
Whichhhh is going to come real handy with all my 1/2 marathon training. I think I've mentioned that before, but if not... I have now! More info on that in my next post. 

G5 GPS Pod

Oh and I purchased:

USB Datalink Accessory

This is going to let me track everything on my computer so I am pretty excited about that as well. I really hope that the GPS was a smart choice over the footpod, but the vast majority of my running/walking is outdoors, even in the winter. I'll let y'all know my thoughts on the GPS pod soon!

All the pictures of the various screens can be found by googling if you are actually interested in buying this particular watch.
