You can see that the Fenix 3 measured the shortest while the logger measured the longest which is no surprise, this has been the case in all my testing so far. Here are the distance differences relative to the FR920XT which I used as reference: Please ignore my times and the horrible positive split in the marathon, given that I ran a total of 100 miles in the last 3 months with the longest run being a 10 miler due to injury has something to do with it. It turned out pretty good to have both of those conditions as far as GPS reception goes as it really tells a better story. The marathon was full overcast with moderate to heavy rain throughout the race with stiff headwind, basically the worst you can have for a race or GPS or pretty close to it. The 5K weather was perfect, clear skies, full sun, as good as it gets for a race and for GPS. The 5K is strictly in downtown with heavy building cover and runs the last mile of the marathon course under these tough conditions. I ran both the 5K then two days later the marathon. I also suspected that the FR920XT would probably do just as good if not better. My hypothesis before the running was that the Fenix 3 would do great with Boston given it's relatively straight line running course with very few turns and it would do better than most watches in downtown thanks to Glonass. I took my trusty FR620, FR920XT, Fenix3 and SirfSTAR GPS logger with me and bought a TomTom Runner at the expo just to get one more data point for the comparison run that was not Garmin. I just got home from Boston after running the weekend races. Sync to SportTracks is as easy as a few clicks. You can also examine your evolution with different graphs offered by the app.
Just select who is being measured and the app will keep a separate history log for them. The app is multi-user and it is a much more convenient way to track the whole family’s health. It works both with built-in ANT+ chip devices and using ANT+ USB sticks, offers you a quick and easy way to download all your health data stored in Garmin Connect, and now it integrates with the health measurements data in SportTracks.ĭepending on the model of your weight scale you can get all or some of these metrics: The app is capable of reading the body composition metrics that are transmitted wirelessly from ANT scales. Now Android users have an alternative with the ANT+ Weight Scale Display app. However, from one day to the next, Garmin killed off support for them in new devices going forward, leaving many owners with nothing more than an expensive paperweight. The first watches to add support for it were the FR60 and Forerunner 310XT but soon more devices followed like Forerunner 70/210/610/910XT or Edge 800/810. Five years ago Garmin started to promote a new dimension in health and fitness monitoring by adding support for ANT+ composition monitors like Tanita BC-1000.
