We tried and tested both of these Garmin 265 and Coros Pace 3 watches for months to home in on the watch’s functions, which brand and model watch would best suit which runner and everything in between.

The Huawei GT 3 has everything to take a runner from couch to 5k and beyond with AI, it’s a very impressive watch for the small price tag. While I wouldn’t say it was a serious competitor to the high-end Garmin, Coros and Polar watches for example.

The Coros Pace 3 is brilliant for serious runners, whether it be on the trails or road because the navigation is on point for both. It’s a simple watch there’s no bells and whistles, especially when it comes to the graphics, but the features are clearly quality over quantity – amazing battery life, fast drying straps, sensationally light weight and well designed, it’s a unique watch

The Garmin Forerunner 265 packs a lot of features in a tiny package, although it looks cheap, you are paying over $500 for round the clock evaluation of your body. If it can read your heart rate then this watch will take all the guesswork out of training and recovery thanks to its heart rate variability and sleep data all wrapped up and presented to you in a brief morning report. It exceeded expectations with the number of functions it has, however it seems quantity over quality

The Brooks Cascadia 17 is the newest edition in a long line of tried and true, versatile trail shoes. It’s difficult to find a better combination of quality, durability, good looks and price. This shoe should make the shortlist for any serious trail runners
