HRM Recommendation - Foghat, anyone else?

[Scrumhalf]

I am thinking of finally purchasing a heart rate monitor. Anyone have any good recommendations? I either do intervals on the elliptical, or fartleks outside.

Fog, I think you mentioned in an earlier post that you used one religiously. What brand do you have and does it serve you well?

I currently have the Nike Triax C8 but I had an older model before that which was far better (it was a "C" series but I can't remember the number - maybe the older version of the C6?). Anyways - the older one came with software that allowed you to track EVERYTHING and it would print out graphs/charts that were essentially "progress" reports etc. I would venture to say that the newest Elite series would do most all of this but checking them out in a store or going to an online forum might help you get more of the answers you're looking for. I use mine pretty regularly but I don't use all of the functions some of the fancier ones have available since I quit running competitively about 6 years ago.
