Currently run in free run 2's. Need some new ones, as they seem to have lost their bounce and support. I want some Nikes again. I've done a couple of runs in my flyknit trainers and like them but am keeping them for casual wear. Any thoughts on which would be better for 10k runs 4 or 5 times a week, free knits or lunar flyknits?

I used to extoll the virtues of Runmeter but the Garmin is so much better. Less intrusive, more accurate and easier to use. You're paying for a dedicated running/cycling/swimming (depending on which model you choose) piece of kit whereas with an app you're paying (albeit a fraction of the price) for something that's been shoe-horned into a smart phone. Granted some of the apps are very good (Nike, RunKeeper, Runmeter) but they're not a patch on a dedicated piece of kit.

36 minutes is pritty insane
mines more around the 42 minute mark,. its all about the stride, then again ive never actually pushed myself to run it quickly.. not keen on finding out either i know some lanky brah who does 10km in 31 minutes and 5km in 17minutes
pure legs long doing the splits in the air

All day, every day. Especially if you're gonna be getting out a couple of times a week (or more). are these Garmin really worth the money against a free app on the phone?

Ah okay, something il probably look at investing in if i continue to run for a while
Also after doing that 10k run the other day, i used Nike app to record the run, the whole run was measured at 10k (around 6.2 miles) although on google maps, if you put the route in it comes out at 6.8 miles? which is right?
