210
Take it Further
For runners who want more training capabilities, Forerunner 210 lets you create customized interval sessions and see your pace for each interval. If youâre using the 210 with the foot pod, you will later be able to see your cadence, or steps per minute, when you upload your data to Garmin Connect.
Follow Your Heart
Some versions of our Forerunner 210 come bundled with our premium soft strap heart rate monitor to display your heart rate in beats per minute. It has five heart rate zones, which you can customize based on your exact zones. You can also set up heart rate alerts to notify you when you are above or below your targets. Forerunner 210 provides heart rate-based calorie computations so you can more accurately track your calories burned.
Outdoors or In
We took the easy-to-use operations of the Forerunner 110 and added indoor capabilities, making the 210 the perfect sport watch for those who like options. For outdoor runs, Forerunner 210 uses GPS to accurately record your time, pace and distance. To track that same data at the gym, snap the foot pod¹ onto your shoe and youâre good to go. Using advanced accelerometer technology, the foot pod collects and sends precise data about your movements, gathering distance and speed data that is 98 percent accurate for most users, right out of the box.
For even more options, Forerunner 210 also works with certain indoor fitness equipment so you can track and store data from a treadmill run or an indoor cycling workout. This capability helps you bridge the gap between your indoor and outdoor fitness activities so you can continually track your progress. See a list of fitness facilities and compatible equipment.
Store, Analyze and Share
Whether youâre training for a race or launching a healthier lifestyle, youâll love the motivation that comes from reviewing your workouts online. Tracking your data is simple with Garmin Connectâ¢, our website for free data analysis and sharing. Just upload to Garmin Connect from your PC or Mac, then see the route you traveled on a map, view a summary of your workout data, create goals and more. For indoor activities when the GPS isnât in use, you wonât see mapping in Garmin Connect, but youâll still have a record of your workout data.
405
Watch Results
Loaded with serious training features, Forerunner 405 continuously monitors your time, distance, pace, calories and heart rate (when paired with heart rate monitor). Each run is stored in memory so you can review and analyze the data to see how you've improved. You even can download recorded courses to compete against previous workouts or race a Virtual Partner®. Customize Forerunnerâs data screens for instant feedback while you train.
Use with Ease
Sport watch and personal trainer, Forerunner 405 gives you the best of both worlds in a sleek, stylish package. This high performance watch is easy to use and comfortable to wear when not training. Simply tap the touch bezel to change screens without fumbling for a button. Forerunner 405 comes in 2 colors â black or green â to fit your style.
Run, Sync, Store and Share
Once youâve logged the miles, innovative ANT+⢠wireless technology automatically transfers data to your computer when the Forerunner is in range. No cables, no hookups. The dataâs just there, ready for you to analyze, categorize and share through our online community, Garmin Connect⢠or our optional Garmin Training Center® software. You can wirelessly send workouts from your computer to Forerunner, too.
Share Wirelessly
With Forerunner 405 you can share your locations, advanced workouts and courses wirelessly with other Forerunner 405 users. Now you can send your favorite workout to your buddy to try, or compete against a friend's recorded course. Sharing data is easy. Just select âtransferâ to send your information to nearby units.
Track Heart Rate
Forerunner 405 is available with or without a heart rate monitor (see the versions tab) to help you make the most out of your training. Versions with a digital heart rate monitor continuously track heart beats per minute. Train in a certain heart rate zone to improve your fitness level or compare your pace and heart rate to past performance on the same run.
Cross-Train
Take your training inside with the versatile Forerunner 405. Pair it with an optional foot pod to track your speed, distance and running cadence indoors when a GPS signal is unavailable. This new design clips onto your laces for easy removal and automatically turns on when you start moving. You also can add a speed/cadence bike sensor to track the speed and distance of your cycling workouts.
Lock Onto Satellite Signals
Forerunner 405 sports a unique design that gives the GPS antenna a better view of the sky, so it can get a stronger signal during your run. And its high-sensitivity GPS receiver provides improved tracking under trees and near tall buildings.

Any suggestions for Running Watches???!?
Aaron
i want a watch with a pacer sort of like the garmin watch, any suggestions?
Answer
There are several options for a pacer-though garmin has been a front runner.
These include:
The NEW BALACE N8 TRAINER ($150) delivers basic heart-rate, speed, and distance tracking at a decent price. Unlike the other watches here, the N8 comes with both a heart-rate strap (although not a particularly comfortable one) and a quarter-sized footpod. You can set the display several ways to prominently show pace and heart rate, and you can cycle through other nice-to-know metrics, like cadence and step count, across the bottom. However, we did find the scrolling display quite hard to read on the go and it provides the least detail among the heart-rate trainers we tested. nbwebexpress.com
For runners interested in studying as much workout information as possible, the GARMIN FR60 ($99) is a wrist-top professor. The watch measures heart rate and calories via the included chest strap and, if you add the optional footpod ($99), it tracks speed, cadence, and distance. It also sucks up workout stats from ANT+ enabled cardio machines at the gym and wirelessly uploads all the numbers to Garmin's Web site, where you can slice and dice them into eye-pleasing charts. We especially liked how the watch's virtual partner showed how far behind (or ahead) you were of the target pace.
Getting off the couch and up to speed can be the most difficult thing for a new runner, but the NIKE+ SPORTBAND ($59) holds your hand along the way. During runs, the watch pulls signals from the included footpod, displaying speed, distance, and elapsed time. When the run is done, you can upload this info to the Nike+ Web site, where you can learn more about your training trends by plotting charts for speed, distance, and estimated calorie counts. Take note, however, that this watch is as basic as it gets. You won't get any heart-rate measurements, nor will it even count laps. nikerunning.com
