Garmin Forerunner 405
Garmin Forerunner 405
Garmin became famous as a manufacturer of GPS receivers and navigation devices, so it stands to reason that the Forerunner series would have a number of unique features taking advantage of their GPS capabilities. Included among these is the incredibly useful Virtual Partner feature, allowing you to observe a runner on the graphical display of the watch, whose pace you will attempt to match. You can easily adjust the pace of the virtual partner by clicking down and dragging on the face of the watch, which doubles as a large, easily reached button.
Using the free Garmin Training Center software, you can easily transfer the data collected by the Forerunner 405 onto your computer. From there, you can either generate graphs of your performance for further analysis, or overlay your route on satellite photos to share with your friends. The unique feature of the Forerunner 405 is that the data transfer takes place wirelessly through an included USB dongle; simply walk within a few meters of your computer, and the data collected from your workout will be downloaded to the computer automatically; no docking cradle necessary.
Using a wireless chest strap, the Forerunner 405 allows you to maximize the benefit of your workouts by setting and maintaining target heart rates. The workout can further be broken down into intervals of lighter work, harder work, and rest, each with their own target heart rates. The Forerunner 405 will alert you every step of the way if you are too far over or under the target rate for that interval.
