If you\u2019re training for a fall marathon, you want to make sure you have the right gear to support your training runs. That includes owning a smartwatch that can keep you accountable and track your data. The Garmin Epix Pro (Generation 2) is one of CNET\u2019s well-reviewed sports watches<\/a> and is currently 50% off for Prime Day<\/a>, making its $1,000 usual price a much more wallet-friendly $500<\/a>. Garmin watches don’t come cheap, so this Prime Day discount is well worth checking out as Garmin is popular among runners and other serious athletes. As a runner myself, I\u2019ve tested Garmin\u2019s Forerunner 970<\/a> and appreciate the thought Garmin puts into its devices, since it knows what most athletes are looking for in their training.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, the high price can deter athletes who may be interested in trying a Garmin but instead opt for more affordable wearables, such as the Apple Watch<\/a> or Samsung Galaxy Watch. It can also be too overwhelming for new runners or fitness enthusiasts who aren\u2019t looking for extra data that they don\u2019t know what to do with. If you fall into that group, you\u2019d fare better with the Apple Watch 11<\/a> or another alternative.<\/p>\n

The Epix is compatible with iPhones and Android phones, and it does it all: tracking your sleep and blood oxygen levels, measuring your VO2 Max, tracking 30 activities, offering a multisport mode and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Although this watch doesn\u2019t answer phone calls or respond to texts, the extensive features and six-day battery life make up for it. If you\u2019re a fitness enthusiast who wants a sports watch that does it all, now\u2019s the time to get the Epix Pro at half off its retail price.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you\u2019re training for a fall marathon, you want to make sure you have the right gear to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":507079,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[85,46,125],"class_list":["post-507078","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/507078","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=507078"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/507078\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/507079"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=507078"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=507078"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=507078"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
