Global smartwatch brand Garmin is encouraging amateur and experience Filipino runners to take their daily workout to the next level with the new Garmin Forerunner 55, an easy-to-use GPS smartwatch designed for people of all skill levels to track their stats and achieve their fitness goals. With just a simple press of a button, users can now start tracking their time, distance, speed, pace and heart rate right on their wrist while walking or running. The Garmin Forerunner 55 also offers detailed running data, daily suggested workouts and additional built-in sports applications.
The Forerunner 55 sports a variety of tools that runners can use to help taking their training to the next level. These include PacePro that guides runners in tailoring their efforts to a selected course or distance; a finish time estimator that lets users select a run distance and view their estimated finish time on their wrist; cadence alerts which let runners know when they have gone outside their target cadence range; built-in activity profiles including track or virtual running, pool swimming, Pilates and HIIT; and Garmin Coach training plans that offer on-screen guidance from expert coaches and free marathon training plans based on the runner's goals.
It also sports popular connected features that can help runners stay in touch such as receiving text messages, viewing social media updates and e-mails, and built-in assistance and incident detection that enables users to manually or automatically send a message with their real-time location to emergency contacts. The Forerunner 55 also automatically uploads activities to Garmin Connect and allows users to download custom watch faces, data fields and apps from the Connect IQ™ Store. Furthermore, the Forerunner 55 features up to 2 weeks of battery life on smartwatch mode and up to 20 hours on GPS mode so users can get more runs and workouts in between charges.
