garmin gps


When people think of Garmin GPS, most of the time they think of navigation, not something to use during a work out, but it looks like the folks at Garmin have done it again. My husband has a Garmin GPS and he loves it. In fact, we use it quite often on the weekends when we go walking in the woods, but recently he called me to say he had bought me a Garmin GPS. While I'm definitely not against having a Garmin GPS of my own, I wasn't really sure why my husband bought me one. He assured me, I was going to love it, so I decided to wait until he got home with the package he had delivered to his office to see if that was going to be the case.

When he got home, he handed me the box from Shopp Rite Mall, whose online store can be found at http://www.shoppritemall.com/. I wasn't sure what the box would contain, other than the Garmin GPS, but I was about to find out. My husband stood over me as I opened the box with a smile on his face. Obviously, whatever it was, he was convinced I was going to love it.

When I opened the box and saw the Garmin Forerunner 305 GPS Receiver With Heart Rate Monitor, I squealed with delight. I did not even know Garmin GPS made a receiver with a heart rate monitor and I was thrilled! I'd been telling my husband for months, when I worked out that I'd like to have a heart rate monitor for when I ran. I even made a joke once about how I wished that Garmin GPS had something I could use while working out. Low-and-behold they do! I couldn't wait to read the instructions and get the thing working, so I could see how and what all the Garmin GPS would do. My husband just smiled and when I hugged him, he made the old "I told ya so" comment. What could I say, he did tell me that I would love the Garmin GPS and I should have known better than to ever doubt him. I've always said that my husband gives the most amazing gifts ever, and he always knows what I want and need, and this time was no exception. I can't wait to try out the Garmin GPS on my jog in the morning.
