Hi,

I am new to racing. I just started running and biking about two months ago so I am a real newbie. I do have a 10 k and a tri lined up for the fall. I was told that for my trianing I should get a heart rate monitor that gives my heartrate as well as my caloric output and I was wondering what you guys thought a good heartrate monitor is. I only need to be able to see my heartrate and calories used. I don't need all those other features but I do want one that will last. I would rather spend a few more dollars up front then need to replace it sooner then if I got a good one.

Thanks,

Tami
