GARMIN Forerunner 310XT

Small wrist top GPS receiver with easy to read display, heart rate monitor (included with pack) and wireless data exchange with USB receiver. Also well suited as bike computer.

As a personal training assistant, the GARMIN Forerunner 310XT records the travelled path (track), your heart rate (requires heart rate monitor), distance, time and pace/speed, computes the calories burned and helps to achieve your personal workout goals. The device is very easy to use, supports multiple languages and has an extremely sensitive antenna. It is the perfect partner for any outdoor activities. Supports wireless data exchange with a PC via the included USB receiver.
The optional speed and cadence sensor plus the mounting kit for handlebar make the Forerunner 310XT also well suited as a bike computer. Also, there is an optional foot pod to measure speed and distance indoor.

The Forerunner 310XT is especially well suited to provide information about your outdoor activities (track, speed, distance, elevation profile, heart rate, time a.s.o.). Use the function "mark waypoint" to get the coordinates of the current location. The device also shows distance and direction from the current location to user defined waypoints.

  • Chest belt with heart rate monitor. (included with the "Pack", but also available as an option). The chest belt uses a digitally coded signal, which means, once a heart beat sensor and the GPS have established a connection, the GPS will never receive a conflicting signal from another sensor. So you can exercise in close proximity to other sensors without fear of interference.

  • Stores various settings per sport mode (running, biking, other), such as values to be displayed on the custom page, heart rate zones, limits etc.
  • Stop watch with split times (laps). Records split times either manually by pressing the "lap" key or automatically based on a user defined distance.
  • Auto pause: Stops the watch automatically if the current speed drops below a user defined value, e.g. when waiting at a red light or during a short break.
  • Virtual Partner: This unique feature helps you to achieve certain goals for your workout. The virtual partner will keep exactly the pace / speed required to achieve the goal you have set.

  • Course: Follow a course based on previously recorded activities to match or exceed your goals. The Forerunner tracks your workout, but also indicates if you are on your course path or not.
