will the stop watch work in your pocket while running

Prefer to hang around my neck to avoid having the button accidentally pushed during the flexing of my hip and squashing of the stop watch in my pocket.The lanyard could also be wrapped around your wrist if you didn't want it around your neck.Simply to answer your question, yes it will operate in your pocket while running, but you will run a risk of the button being accidentally pushed and your results lost if the stop watch happens to get squished between your pocket and skin.Hope this helps.

Yes. It will work in your pocket while running. Although I wear mine around my neck so I can easily check my split times. Good times.

yes, why not? you just have to be sure that you don't accidentally click the start/stop button. you could also wear it around your neck as a lanyard is provided

It has either and depends on which one you buy. I don't use this feature since it's a hindrance for me since I always run under 7 min miles and want the freedom.

Good question. I have shorts that have a pocket watch and I slip it in there. It seems to me to be deficient on that point. I guess you could tie a string around it, securely, and place it around neck or attach to arm.

I haven't been able to pause the stopwatch mode once it started. There may be a way, but I have not stumbled upon it yet. It just rolls on. :-/

No. You will have to use a wrist strap with the pocket kind in order for it to be placed.

this device will work with the iphone to read your running strides. it will not work as effective with a bike as the iphone will scan the running stride angle to estimate your running distance. you can use it while riding as long as you run after riding. you may need to calibrate it a second time after riding a bike so the iphone can pick up the correct stride distance. for multi sport devices look into the Suunto Ambit2, with Foot pod/Bike Pod (sold separately). The Sunto watch is a multi useful machine that can be used for almost anything.

It has ear plugs ,one for each ear that don't stay in place to be able to hear it so NO I can't see driving and catching ear plugs as they drop out while driving .I don't understand how runners can listen to it while running .It fits into you breast pocket very nicely but only so you will not bother other that you are in a room with.

Negative. The watch already has a heart rate monitor. You can display real time info when using the exercise function.

Yes you can but from what I can tell, you are unable to view your stats at the same time. You'd be much better off to just set your lap distance to 1 mile (the default), then enable auto-lap. The watch will beep at the end of every mile and you would know to switch to a run/walk.

Not really. It can't be used as a stop watch. It is a very basic heart rate monitor. I highly recommend this watch. It is a great value; and easy to use.

Yes. You can use the watch with or without GPS active. Keeps elapsed time and laps. Top, right button starts and stops timer. Bottom, right button starts a new lap. There are much cheaper options if that is the primary function you want though.

This watch can't catch the GPS signal from indoors side, so you can benefit from this device during outdoor running. Not suitable for treadmill.

No. But you can just rotate it to the inside of your wrist and work the keypad (if you can do that while you're running).

When you tap the watch face it can be used as a fifth button. You might be switching screens by doing this when you are using. You would have to check the settings in the MapMyRun app. Otherwise it might be a bug in the app. I would suggest trying Wahoo Fitness app with this watch. They offer the most customization for the watch and you can upload the data from them to a lot of other apps as well.

Yes, you need your device with you on your run. I have the iPod version and love it!

The Garmin Forerunner 15 does have an auto pause feature that can be turned on under run options.

On my stop watch you have to unscrew a little screw to get access to the battery. Hope that helps.
