Have been swimming in the ocean and walking (instead of swimming in the pool and weight training) since the Covid 19 crisis began so have been thinking of getting a watch that keeps track of both my distance swimming and distance walking. Seems like the Garmin Swim 2 watch is the best out there (not interested in Apple). Before I take the plunge I was hoping for some feedback from people who already use it.
I have a Garmin 910 and Garmin Swim 2. I can feel lap alarm on 910 but not on Swim 2. I can't make either work for a hike (put a little jog in and it's fine). For some reason both think I'm standing still. Perhaps it's my turtle hiking pace. The swim 2 is awful for detecting stroke. I swam every single event in the virtual championship and I think the only one that I didn't have to enter manually was 200 fly.
