Most of the people in my long distance training group (run/walk strategy) have the Garmin 910XT. Can this watch simultaneously track pace & avg pace?

Yes, it can do both. They are actually back-to-back options as you toggle through the possible views during a run. I would offer that I've used Garmins in the past and the their pace seems more accurate, and quicker to adjust, while on the run itself - an important quality if pace is your go-to metric while on the run. It will all even out once you upload the run to your running site of choice but that's of little consolation while running. Don't get me wrong - this is a small complaint and I like the watch so far.

No mapping because there is no GPS. But it will automatically track the heart beat (with the heart monitor) or number of steps and group them (roughly) into an activity session that can labeled online. But no course will be mapped, and the tracker is slow to recognize that an activity has ended (adding about 10% more time by the time it recognizes that pace is back to normal). Sometimes I wear the Garmin 310x with the Vivofit to see the variation between a GPS watch and a stepper watch. The GPS watch is of course much more accurate (and expensive).

Hi, If you have an Ipod Nano you can try the very cheap, in comparison with GPS, Nike+ Sportkit. Once you calibrate it, it is very accurate. All my runs (same route) about 8km only vary on +/- 100m. Hope that helps a little bit.

It is not a GPS mapping device. It is a runners watch that will five you distance, time, pace, average pace, calories burned and heart rate (with heart rate monitor).

Yes but I do not use it. I have set it up once to try out. All you have to do is hit the top of your watch to clock an interval. I think this makes it a great IT for short runs but longer distances mean more chance of hitting the IT as you run. Hope this helps, Andrew

You need to sync it. Check Garmin's website for the manual to your specific watch and the instructions to sync these two products.

Not sure if it would or could last that long. It's suppose to last up to 10 hours in training mode. Perhaps look at the Garmin 910 and see what the specs on that are.

Yes - this will work with the Forerunner 410. It is an ant+ enabled device and will pair together. However, isn't the Forerunner 410 a run-specific model? I could be wrong, but I think the 410 isn't designed for both running and cycling. The 310 or 910 models (on the other hand) allow you to switch between the two different sports. Runners, for instance, like to track their pace in mins per mile (ex: 8:05/mile), but cyclings track by miles per hour. If this is true and the 410 is built specifically for runners, you may want to consider investing into a "multi-sport" watch before purchasing the speed/cadence sensor. Doing this would allow you to look at run data while out pounding the pavement and bike data when cycling. Good luck!

I'd done quite a bit of research on the Garmin watches and accessories before I bought my 310XT. It works great with that and with everything I've read about the 920XT, it should work with it. I'd recommend hopping on the Garmin website just to double check. I'm very happy with this foot pod and I hope you will be too.

Yes it will show current and average pace. You can set up what information is shown to you on your runs when you set up the software on your computer.

Check with Garmin or check the documentation for the 910xt. I assume this is a new watch than the 305 series?

Yes, all Garmins have "current time" as a display option. I wouldn't double the 205 as a watch though because of its size. The 110/210/410 or 405 series would be better.

I would not use the Garmin's monitor feature. I use Polar's "F" series they are accurate and dependable. I have been using thgem since late 1999 and have founbd them to be the best on the market.

Please, check Garmin home page. There´s a lot of way to choose how to see the screen. I use my watch and check just distance, time and current pace in same screen. Otherwise, if you are not a professional, see the 220 for 100 dollars less.....

It will track your position and your speeds. You can then use Garmin homeport to review it.

I ran with my Garmin405CX just yesterday on a route that I know is almost exactly 3.1 miles. I've driven it and checked the odometer. I've walked it and counted paces with a pedometer. I've mapped it on Google and Yahoo to the same results. The 405CX absolutely nailed it. If it's an accuracy problem, I'd suspect it is related to location or satellite interference of some kind.

Not sure. But I can tell you I would DEFINiTELY NOT recommend this watch to ANYONE. This is my third Garmin, and the other two worked fine - this model has some major defects that I don't think Garmin wants to acknowledge. I"m looking at Polar or Nike or anything else but Garmin for my next GPS.
