Garmin Forerunner 201 Personal Training Portable GPS
The Forerunner 201 offers athletes an easy-to-read display, ergonomic wristband, and integrated GPS sensor that provides precise speed, distance, and pace data. It's a compact, lightweight, accurate training assistant with performance tracking, auto-lap, auto-pause and more. The Forerunner 201 is easy to use right out of the box and delivers the benefits of GPS technology at an affordable price. Working out with the Forerunner 201 means you're never alone in your personal training, because the unit provides a Virtual Partner. This unique feature allows you to set your training goal by configuring your Virtual Partner's pace and workout distance. You'll get a graphic perspective of your performance by viewing your pace in relation to your Virtual Partner's pace, so you can always see at a glance if you're keeping up or falling behind. As an added benefit, users can plan, analyze and store data from their workouts using Garmin's free Training Center software. This software allows you to store and analyze data using interactive graphs that chart your speed, pace, or elevation. Your course is overlaid on a map so you can pinpoint specific areas and see how elevation and other factors affect your performance. New! Training Center Training Center software, originally designed for the Forerunner 301, has been such a powerful training tool that Garmin adapted it for the 201. All new Forerunner 201 units come with Training Center. raining Center has a simple user interface and allows you to transfer workout history from the 201 to the PC for storage and analysis. Your workout tracks are overlaid on a map page so can analyze pace and speed data at any point. Indefinite storage capabilities on the PC allow you to review your workout histories over time. Training Center offers additional capabilities for 301 users, including the ability to download customized workouts to their unit. These capabilities are not enabled in the Training Center software for 201 users. Forerunner Logbook Logbook is the original software that was developed for the Forerunner 201. It allows you to download your training history data from your 201 to your PC for analysis and archive purposes. With the introduction of the newer, more comprehensive Training Center software for the 201, Logbook will no longer be supported.
