Garmin Forerunner 305 GPS Receiver With Heart Rate Monitor

The Garmin Forerunner 305 GPS records time, speed, pace, course, distance, elevation, grade, heading and more - all with pinpoint accuracy. Of course, you also have the ability to enter multiple lap and pace modes as well as having it calculate calorie expenditure. Best of all, it saves all of the data collected for later analysis.

The wireless heart rate monitor on the 305 does more than simply monitoring heart rate. It will also track lap heart rate, average heart rate, and heart rate zones to ensure that you are maintaining your heart rate at the optimum level throughout your workout.

With this Garmin, you can customize future workouts so you train smarter and more effectively. It’s almost like having a personal trainer on board to push you to improve your personal best.

But what makes the Garmin Forerunner 305 GPS unique is its patented GPS capability. With this highly sensitive, responsive GPS receiver you get the best reception virtually anywhere, from built up urban areas to dense foliage in wooded areas. No more interference from tall buildings or problems navigating new trails.

The Garmin 305 is the perfect training tool for a wide range of sports and fitness activities and is suitable for athletes of all levels. Whether your sport is running, inline skating, cross-country skiing, cycling, windsurfing, or rowing, the Forerunner will work for you. Choose whatever data to display while you are working out, from basic information to more detailed stats.

Not only is the Forerunner 305 functional, it looks great too. Although larger than a regular sports watch, it’s easily as comfortable. The unit’s widescreen display is positioned just right for ease of viewing while you’re on the move. And its curved casing allows the antenna to face the sky while you’re cycling or running so reception is right on.

It comes with a simple docking cradle with USB connection that makes charging as well as data connectivity easy. You can download your data into the Garmin Training Center software for detailed analysis.

For even more in-depth analysis, serious athletes will like the fact that the 305 is compatible with MotionBased software. MotionBased is a web based application that adds an extra dimension to training and fitness with its online mapping and route sharing among members.
