hey everyone,

was wondering if it was worth it to spend the extra $130 to go from the Forerunner 265 to the Epix Gen 2. They're both on sale here in Canada with the FR265 being $469 and the Epix Gen 2 being $599.

My use case will be starting to run, I'd like to complete a half marathon in the spring of 2025 and I haven't done any serious running before. I cycle every now and then but I do have a wahoo bike computer.

The only other thing I would really like is to track my general fitness levels and sleep which I know both watches do.

The one thing I really like about the 265 is that I can get the 265S which would be the perfect size for my wrist. The Epix Gen 2 might be a little too big at 47mm but nothing I can't deal with.

I know the biggest difference is probably golf and maps which I don't think I'll use to it's full extent as I just started learning how to golf but I guess in the future it would be worth using it.

Anyone have any suggestions on to which one I should get?
