I agree with Justin and Mark, and how they use the device. I use a Garmin Oregon 450, and load the course (from MapMyRun) onto the GPS, so I can make sure I am on the correct course.

Going one step further, I post the GPS track on my Website for each course, so anyone can download it for locating the split points. Very useful to get near the point with the GPS, then find the point by the description on the map.

Elevation profiles are normally decent, but not perfect. But, they are the only way to have the proper profile across bridges, as the online tools follow the contour of the land, not roads (bridges and dams).

Mark's point about deductibility is also a very valid point. Maximize those deductions!
