Tried TrackRunner and TrailRunner and neither of the two programs was satisfying. Then i stumbled across Ascent and immediately i felt home.

I was a bit hesitant at first since my Forerunner 305 came with GTC. But, I gave the trial a shot and was immediatly impressed with the control over the features and the functionality of this program.

About 3 weeks into purchasing, I had a bit of an issue and emailed tech support about it. Support got back to me in less than 12 hours! Not only that, but an update was released the next day directly addressing my issue. How could anyone beat that service.

Ascent has yet another loyal customer. Had I known the software was this good, I would have happily paid more than the $35 asking price.
