The TomTom Spark Cardio + Music measures heart rate directly on the wrist. The sports watch also has a built-in music player with 3GB of memory for up to 500 tracks.

2. From the practical to the essential
In a special pouch or running backpack, you can put bars or gel, for example.
Some people like to run while listening to music. You can either use your mobile phone and secure it with a special holder or take a good old MP3 player. It's advisable to use Bluetooth sports headphones so you're not bothered by the cable when you run.
If you like to run after dark, you should opt for reflective running clothes as well as a headlamp, to see and be seen.
