Memorial Day 2025: Best Running Gear Deals on Garmin, Coros, Shokz

Memorial Day sales are live, and a few deals are actually worth your attention. Garmin, Coros, and Shokz are all cutting prices ahead of summer race season, with discounts hitting $100 to $300 off on some of the most-used training tools in the sport.

On the watch side, Garmin's Forerunner lineup is seeing solid markdowns. The Forerunner 265 and 965 both track training load, HRV status, and race predictor times with solid GPS accuracy. The 965 competes directly with the Coros Apex 2 Pro, which is also discounted and undercuts Garmin on battery life at roughly 75 hours GPS versus the 965's 31 hours.

Coros deals are worth a close look if you run ultras or want the longest battery life under $400. The Apex 2 and Pace 3 are both on sale. The Pace 3 in particular is a strong pick for runners who don't need mapping but want accurate pace, VO2 max estimates, and EvoLab training metrics without paying Garmin prices.

Shokz OpenRun Pro headphones are discounted too, around $30 to $40 off. Bone conduction means you keep full situational awareness on roads and trails. Sound quality won't match in-ear options, but for safety-conscious runners logging road miles, they're a reliable choice that competes well with nothing else at the price point.

Buy what you actually train with, not what looks good on paper. If you've been eyeing a Garmin or Coros upgrade, this weekend is a legitimate window to pull the trigger before summer race entry fees eat your budget.
