on my latest toy - Polar-maru!

Realised I haven't write up about my latest toy. Was running at East Coast Park on Monday. Didn't have my watch with me, so didn't keep track for time. For me, wearing a watch is optional, since my hand-phone can tell the time when I need it. But just happen that day I was charging the phone battery, so I didn't bring my phone out.

Been thinking of buying a watch with heart-rate monitoring (HRM) functions since my RT days. My friends told me the best is to get a Polar time piece, since they are a bit more up-class than Timex pieces, yet more affordable than Garmin watches. So decided to go get a Polar watch after my jog on Monday.

Initially wanted to get just a basic watch with HRM functions. After 2walking around Bugis and City Hall area for a bit, found out the next level (with the foot-pod that can measure distance - AMAZING! ;p) is just a tad more expensive. So in the end, I bit the bullet and got my RS300X Sd aka Polar-maru.

And all I can shay ish

Huat ah!
