Finally, a GPS-enabled training device that isn't afraid of the water. The
rugged Forerunner 310XT is the triathlete's indispensable training tool - a
GPS-enabled trainer that is water-resistant to 164 ft (50 m), tracks data in
multiple sport modes and sends it wirelessly to your computer. This multisport
device has up to 20 hours of battery life, tracks distance, pace and heart rate?
on land, and goes from wrist to bike in seconds.
Track Your Swim
The Forerunner 310XT times your swim in the pool or the lake. And while the
GPS signal does not track distance while swimming like it does on land, thanks
to a recent software update, it now accurately estimates open water swim
distance and average speed. Simply enable the Swim mode and press start as you
begin your swim. When finished, press the lap button and the 310XT automatically
processes a combination of the time and GPS data to compute an estimate of
distance covered and average speed while swimming.
Transition Effortlessly
When you're ready to jump out of the water and onto the bike, Forerunner
310XT moves easily from wrist to bike with the optional quick release and bike
mounts, making the transition between sports effortless. Forerunner 310XT
categorizes multisport activities in one workout and also can log transition
time in the process, so you can analyze your performance from start to finish.
Collect Workout Data
Forerunner 310XT tracks your position precisely with GPS satellite data and
records distance, pace, heart rate?, power data (from ANT+™-enabled third-party
power meters) and more. High-sensitivity GPS and HotFix® satellite prediction
mean Forerunner acquires satellites quickly and tracks your movement even near
tall buildings or under tree cover. And using innovative ANT+ wireless
technology, Forerunner 310XT connects seamlessly to an optional heart rate
monitor, foot pod and cadence sensor.
When paired with the optional wireless heart rate monitor, Forerunner 310XT
continuously tracks beats per minute and uses heart rate data in advanced
calorie computation. Train in a certain heart rate zone to improve fitness and
monitor your level of exertion. NOTE: Heart rate data is not recorded for swim
activities.
Monitor Your Health
You also can track weight, body fat, body water and six other measurements
when using the Forerunner 310XT with the Tanita BC-1000 body composition scale.
The readings are stored on Forerunner 310XT, then automatically sent to Garmin
Connect™ when in range of your computer.
Run, Sync, Store and Share
Once you've logged the miles, innovative ANT+ wireless technology
automatically transfers data to your computer when Forerunner is in range. No
cables, no hookups. The data's just there, ready for you to analyze, categorize
and share through our online community, Garmin Connect or our optional Garmin
Training Center™ software. You even can plan workouts on your computer and then
send them to your Forerunner.
?Included with some models; available separately with others. Only soft
strap heart rate monitor accessory is waterproof (hard strap monitor cannot be
used in water). Although soft strap monitor may be worn in water, it will not
record, store or transmit heart rate data to the watch while in water.
