Courses
WARNING
This feature allows users to download routes created by other users. Garmin makes no representations about
the safety, accuracy, reliability, completeness, or timeliness of routes created by third parties. Any use or
reliance on routes created by third parties is at your own risk.
You can send a course from your Garmin Connect account to your device. After it is saved to your device, you
can navigate the course on your device.
You can follow a saved course simply because it is a good route. For example, you can save and follow a bike
friendly commute to work.
You can also follow a saved course, trying to match or exceed previously set performance goals. For example,
if the original course was completed in 30 minutes, you can race against a Virtual Partner trying to complete the
course in under 30 minutes.
