Viewing Your Predicted Race Times
For the most accurate estimate, complete the user profile setup (Setting Up Your User Profile), and set your maximum heart rate (Setting Your Heart Rate Zones).
Your device uses the VO2 max. estimate (About VO2 Max. Estimates) and your training history to provide a target race time. The device analyzes several weeks of your training data to refine the race time estimates.
TIP: If you have more than one Garmin device, you can enable the Physio TrueUp feature, which allows your device to sync activities, history, and data from other devices (Syncing Activities and Performance Measurements).
- From the watch face, select UP or DOWN to view the performance widget.
- Select START to scroll through the performance measurements.
Your projected race times appear for 5K, 10K, half marathon, and marathon distances.
NOTE: The projections may seem inaccurate at first. The device requires a few runs to learn about your running performance.
