With a sport watch from Garmin, you can see your time, distance, pace, lap splits and more. Just press a button to start the timer and run with it. The watch does the rest, including automatically recording laps, automatically pausing and restarting the timer for stops and starts, plus storing every minute of your workout for review later.
It’s the same technology used by professional athletes like American record holders Josh Cox and Deena Kastor. And now you can have it all at your fingertips.

Think about the time you’d save if you didn’t have to record and manually log splits for each runner on your team. Or input it all in the computer later.
With the Garmin Coach program, high school and collegiate runners can receive a discount on a sport watch that tracks time, distance, pace and more. The watch provides instant feedback to runners and stores detailed data for post-workout analysis. After each workout, the athletes or someone from the coaching staff can quickly upload and analyze the data at our free website, Garmin Connect.
For outdoor runs recorded with a GPS-enabled Garmin watch, you’ll be able to see the activity on a map, view lap splits, averages, charts and more. You can also compare data among teammates and identify strengths and weaknesses in individual runners. All this information can help you tailor your coaching to individual runners.
To make the most of your athletes’ training miles, use our free Garmin Connect site to store, compare and analyze every detail. This tool can help you accurately track weekly mileage and season progression for individual runners without entering the data manually. Additional features allow you to compare similar activities so you can analyze teammates’ performances by several metrics, side by side.
Coaches can set up a team account that each student athlete can access to upload or review their runs.

Who can purchase a Garmin watch for a student athlete?
The student, parent, guardian, family member or coach can purchase the device. However, a copy of the athlete’s student id must be sent in with the rebate form (limit 1 per athlete).
How can a coach benefit from the program if not all of their team members are using Garmin devices?
A coach can benefit from visibility of athlete performance at the Garmin Connect website even if only a few of their student athletes have a Garmin running watch. The coach no longer has to manually record data for student athletes who use a Garmin watch and upload to Garmin Connect.
Can GPS-enabled Garmin watches be worn during a race?
Rules vary by state and event. Check with your coach or your district’s athletic association rules.
