    My budget is about €120-€150, it's a heart rate monitor I want but I'd love a GPS watch too. Do any of the GPS watches have heart rate monitors or do they need to be bought separately?

    You can buy everything separate, but a watch+strap bundle will be cheaper. I've got the TomTom Runner with the HR strap and am very happy with it. It's come down a lot in price too since I got it a year ago. The bundle is £139 on amazon.co.uk as I write this. Full review of the watch here. Bear in mind there's been a lot of updates and issues resolved since then. Great piece of kit for the price.

    Sweatshop.co.uk have an offer on at the moment for Garmin Forerunner 110 for £85. I have had this watch for about 1.5 years and had no trouble with it. A heart rate monitor comes with it - which I have never used, so can't comment either way on that.

    The one for £85 is pink with flowers on it. There's an offer on the blokes one too, just not as good.

    It's grey with one narrow pink stripe !! You'd be fine :)

    I bought the GPS watch in Aldi a couple of weeks ago and it's pretty good. Very easy to use and cost just €40.

    Here's the upload from the Jingle Bells run. The HR can be a bit off at the very start of a run but calms down once you get going.
