Courses
You can send a course from your Garmin Connect account to

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.
