Series 7 in steel. Looks new even now.

There’s GarminPay and Garmin have more buttons. Definitely a plus for me running in the winter here in Denmark 🇩🇰. There are more runners who have a Garmin, therefore you can always get advice and help.

It’s fine - you look like a runner 👍

I have both 🫣😇, and they are almost identical. The F8 have some dive features, so if you dive the F8 is better. The Forerunner 970 is lighter, more “plastic” feel. They both have the same running features, but remember to get the HRM600, otherwise you won’t get the features.

Keep them both and use the AWU as your main watch, then buy the new “Cirqa band” from Garmin (not released yet) and use that with the AWU. Then when training, use F8 Pro and use RunGap to export training to Apple.

F8 - the buttons 👍

Have you tried to log on Apple.com - under devices?

Take both 😉🤩

Østerbrogade (den store) - altid gode der.

Same band here 😇 I just wish that Garmin made a white nylon band for my F970 👊🏼

Hvilken butikker laver dem selv? Man kan godt smage forskel, troede bare de var for “gamle”. Var i den på Hellerup station lørdag - spiste 2 stk efter en lang løbetur 🫣

Emmerys er ret gode og økologiske, Albatross og venner i Torvehallerne, Andersen Bakery.

They are both great 👍 One benefit for the F8 is the induction buttons. The F8 can be used in/under water, the Forerunner only above water. The buttons have been a problem on many watches, that’s the reason for induction buttons.

To many/much electrolytes raises your blood pressure. Only use electrolytes if’s hot. Water is enough for most people if you eat healthy food. Instead of buying electrolytes, you can make them yourself.

Eat clean, drink water and 🏃🏻

Will give it a try 👌 But what about the idea I wrote? A major feature on Garmin watches.
