I have long loved the Garmin Fenix as my daily GPS running watch mostly because the big watch has a big battery and a big screen so I can easily read my run metrics at a glance, even with my aging eyes. I also love the turn-by-turn navigation and would guess that I use that functionality at least once a week. Today’s announcement of all new Garmin Fenix 9 and Fenix 9 Pro watches promise a few key improvements that make the backcountry model even more useful for everyday runners.
