When it comes to fitness watches with heart rate monitors most fitness fanatics look for GPS to measure distance, because they run and jog and hike and swim quite a bit, and there routes are always changing. In my ideal world, they look for a watch which they are able to pop up a map on the PC and see there routes, and have a table showing all there workouts and how many miles they total, in running, biking and swimming.
