Thanks so much for the response Bibi : ) I’ve never used gadgets before so I appreciate the info (and appreciate the fact that the Tom Tom is cheaper than the other one I’ve been looking at – the Garmin Forerunner 230).
Hope you’re enjoying your training!

Ruth

Hi Ruth,

I use the TomTom spark watch and I really like it. It syncs well with strava, and is easy to use.The version I have even stores playlists that can be bluetoothed to my headphones, which is quite cool if you get faffed with wires. I had thought that it would mean I could run with one less gadget, my phone, but actually I realised I prefer to carry it for safety reasons so I suppose the music feature isn’t the be-all and end-all!

That’s so fantastic that you’re going to run the London Marathon : )

I’m signed up for the Chester Marathon in October this year and am only just about to start training. I was wondering, what GPS watch do you use / would you recommend it?

Cheers
Ruth

Will be glued to the telly (after my long run) rooting for you on the day.
Years back when I did London marathon (in the Flora days!!) there used to be a great race guide in Runnersworld magazine with the route map. They still have some route details here
https://www.runnersworld.co.uk/training/rws-flora-london-marathon-mile-by-mile-guide

Otherwise the supporters guide also has a route map.

Have fun, it’s a great race.
