I bought this a month ago when I was first getting into running and it has been amazing for tracking my runs. It makes it easier to keep my pace and plan out how I will be training.

I had recently bought this new Garmin since my last one was lost(stolen). I really enjoy it. I do wish the battery life was longer like the instinct 2 but it makes up for it with how quickly it charges. Other than that it’s a very good watch and great to wear

Great for running!

I switched to Garmin from Apple after too many glitches with my Apple Watch while running long distances. I do think the Apple Watch is better for everyday usability but as far as running goes Garmin is hands down better at pacing, stats and managing user data.

I am very happy with my Garmin Forerunner 165 purchase. It looks great and changed my running routine. I have upgraded it from my Fitbit Charge 5, and so happy I took the plunge. Now I use the running coach function and I have my customized training plan. I have zero regrets.

A essential for runners

I decided to get forerunner 165 because I’m interested in a smart watch that would accurately capture my HR, Pace and Cadence.
The additional features of VO2 max and emergency safety notification, make it a much have for all runners

I loved this watch, it connects to GPS so quickly and also tracks my sleep and heart rate so well. I love it for all of my easy runs and workouts as well.
