Sports/running gear

[Guest]

Hello,

Just wondering if anyone knew whether it was cheaper to get running gear over in Florida?

I am looking to pick up a pair of Asics 2000 trainers (although I know see them on amazon.co.uk for £52 which is half the price I paid for mine! )

I also would like to get a Garmin Forerunner. Silly question but if I buy in the states will it work in the UK with GPS, laptop cables etc

Thanks xxx

Well that's where I'll be off to

(I also need to replace my Asics 2000s)

I bought my AsICS 2000s for about $70/$80 but it was aaaaages ago. Perhaps Feb 2014 or Dec 2013?

They were selling them still in Jan 2015 too but I don't wear them so much now so didn't really pay attention to the price. I'm fairly sure they were even cheaper.

If it's a guide, the ones I buy (Nimbus) tend to be roughly the same price in dollars to pounds, if you compare that to full price retail.

Just in case any runners stumble on this.

I ended up buying a set of Asics Nimbus 17 from finishing line in Mall at Millenia for $99 + tax.

The same pair in Dicks etc was $150 +tax.

However in Dicks, I was able to try on several pairs whilst using their running machine to see which felt best.

Which was nice.

I went to Fit2Run in the Florida mall and got quite a few bargains from there. The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable.
