I have a 101. The 201 has a built in battery, I think. You need to be pretty religious about charging it, there isn't much warning before it turns off. In densely wooded areas, it will lose GPS signal. I don't think it will fit around your bicep (unless you have really small biceps). But other than that, it's a nice way to monitor and pace your runs.

I worked up to it....
ONe thing that helped a lot was sprinting and stair runs. Man, your legs hurt so much, but the next time you go out, you're a helluva lot faster.
