Running Watch: Countdown Timer

In the last post we discussed the split feature on the running watch(Running Watch: Splits) and this next post will be devoted to the countdown timer.

The countdown timer is a useful feature on the running watch because of the fact that it forces you to commit to a specific time.  Committing to a specific time helps you to gauge your distance better. It could also be useful if your doing a out\back run. For more info on the out\back run consult this post:Out\Back Run.Furthermore the feature on the watch has its uses outside of running, for instance if your doing a core workout then having a countdown time will be useful.

However the countdown timer has its limitations if your experience level low. Furthermore this feature is at a disadvantage if you are going out for a social run.  Same would apply for recovery or easy runs. This particular feature would not be useful during the long run unless you know how exactly the amount of time you are going for.

This feature is not something that would be used all the time but when you need it, it will prove to be useful.
