Using Run and Walk Alerts
NOTE: You must set up the run/walk interval alerts before starting a run. After you start the run timer, you
cannot change the settings.
1 From the watch face, select START.
2 Select a running activity.
NOTE: Walk break alerts are available only for running activities.
3 Select Options.
4 Select the activity settings.
5 Select Alerts > Add New > Run/Walk.
6 Set the run time for each alert.
7 Set the walk time for each alert.
8 Go for a run.
Each time you complete an interval, a message appears. The device also beeps or vibrates if audible tones are
turned on (Setting the Device Sounds, page 44). After you turn on the run/walk alerts, it is used each time you
go for a run until you turn it off or enable a different run mode.
Training Indoors
Garmin recommends using indoor activities when you are training indoors or to save battery life. If you select
an activity that is typically done indoors, GPS is automatically turned off. When running or walking with GPS
turned off, speed, distance, and cadence are calculated using the accelerometer in the device. The
accelerometer is self-calibrating. The accuracy of the speed, distance, and cadence data improves after a few
outdoor runs using GPS (Indoor Activities, page 5).
When cycling with GPS turned off, speed and distance data are not available unless you have an optional
sensor that sends speed and distance data to the device, such as a speed or cadence sensor.
Personal Records
When you complete an activity, the device displays any new personal records you achieved during that activity.
Personal records include your fastest time over several typical race distances and longest run, ride, or swim.
