The Best Health and Fitness Gifts of 2014

Any runner, from casual to serious, would love a watch that records her pace, distance, and calories on a run. The Garmin Forerunner 15 ($170) does that and more; when paired with a Garmin heart rate strap (sold separately or with the watch for $200), it will also keep track of her heart rate and target heart rate zones on a run. And when she's not pounding the pavement, the watch acts as an all-around activity tracker, counting her steps, calories, and movement, so she doesn't have to double up on buying a separate device to track her non-workout numbers.
