This is also great outside though for looking at your running turnover as it records that as well. This footpod allows you to run indoors on a treadmill and still give accurate pace and distance data to the Garmin (any Garmin device, 305/310XT/405/410, etc.). One accessory you can get for the 305 that’s applicable to running is the Garmin footpod. I put together a detailed ‘How to’ guide on this back a bit ago, which can be found here.

It will beep at you when you fall out of the prescribed workouts. I use this all the time on the bike during races. This allows you to for example say “Keep a 8:00/mile pace for 2 miles, then switch to a 7:30/mile pace for the next two miles”, etc… You can also do it based on HR or HR zones. While this applies to cycling as well as running, you can also program workouts into your watch.

This is a software feature on the watch that shows you how far ahead/behind you are compared to the little man (like racing a real person) Though I don’t use it much (as I train mostly based on heart rate), it is a neat way to motivate yourself if you’re training solo. One other feature to call out is the ability to race against at ‘little man’ at a given pace (called Virtual Partner). You generally don’t notice this on the watch itself unless your constantly looking at it – and again the software later on simply does math between the two points. Meaning if you’re traveling in a straight line (like a street) and you lose signal – it figures out where you most likely went and interpolates. But if it does temporarily ‘lose you’, it will recalculate your pace/distance based on last known location.

I generally don’t have any issues in normal trees and shorter buildings, though sometimes if I run right alongside taller buildings it will temporarily drop the connection. The pace is generally pretty accurate, though you’ll see slight variations as you run along – no worries though, it all evens out in the software.

Inside the box there are a number of components, but of course, the major item is the watch itself and the cradle to sync/charge with. That said, I feel pretty confident I know the watch pretty well. Plus, if you think this is detailed…you should check out my Forerunner 310XT review… As for the level of detail…well, that’s just my DC Rainmaker way of doing things. So based on that, I’ve put together this review – as well as all the answers in the comments section (closing in on almost 200 of them!). Of course, while I don’t know everything there is about it – I have a pretty solid grasp of pretty much everything it can do.

As of June 2009 that’d officially be for 363 runs, 112 outdoor bike rides (in Aug 2008 I started using the Edge 705 for cycling primarily), 24 open water swims, and a few dozen airplane rides, hikes and other random things. Since buying it I’ve used it a ‘couple’ of times. I published the original version online in the Fall of 2007, and after using the device for nearly two years now as my primary training device, I’ve now updated this review with a ton of information. I originally wrote up this ‘review’ back in May 2007 a few weeks after I first got the Garmin Forerunner 305 – but never published it outside a small circle of friends. After such a long time, it’s still my primary training device) Major Update: June 25th, 2009(I’ve completely revamped and updated this review (my most popular) to add in a ton of information about accessories, updated software and additional thoughts about the device itself now that I’ve had it nearly two years.
