| Forerunner 210 gives you the freedom to train indoors or out, while tracking
every minute and every mile. This GPS-enabled sport watch accurately records how
far, how fast and how hard you worked.
Easy to Use
We made the Forerunner 210 simple to use so you can focus on your workout.
Out of the box, you’ll charge it, take it outside to find GPS satellites and
answer a few setup questions. Then just press start and take off. Once you’re
done, press stop. It really is that easy.
Take it Further
For runners who want more training capabilities, Forerunner 210 lets you
create customized interval sessions and see your pace for each interval. If
you’re using the 210 with the foot pod, you will later be able to see your
cadence, or steps per minute, when you upload your data to Garmin Connect.
Follow Your Heart
Forerunner 210 comes bundled with our heart rate monitor
to display your heart rate in beats per minute. It has five heart rate zones,
which you can customize based on your exact zones. You can also set up heart
rate alerts to notify you when you are above or below your targets. Forerunner
210 provides heart rate-based calorie computations so you can more accurately
track your calories burned.
Outdoors or In
We took the easy-to-use operations of the Forerunner 110 and added indoor
capabilities, making the 210 the perfect sport watch for those who like options.
For outdoor runs, Forerunner 210 uses GPS to accurately record your time, pace
and distance. To track that same data at the gym, snap the foot pod¹ onto your
shoe and you’re good to go. Using advanced accelerometer technology, the foot
pod collects and sends precise data about your movements, gathering distance and
speed data that is 98 percent accurate for most users, right out of the box.
For even more options, Forerunner 210 also works with certain indoor fitness
equipment so you can track and store data from a treadmill run or an indoor
cycling workout. This capability helps you bridge the gap between your indoor
and outdoor fitness activities so you can continually track your progress. See a
list of fitness
facilities and compatible equipment.
Store, Analyze and Share
Whether you’re training for a race or launching a healthier lifestyle, you’ll
love the motivation that comes from reviewing your workouts online. Tracking
your data is simple with Garmin
Connect, our website for free data analysis and sharing. Just upload to
Garmin Connect from your PC or Mac, then see the route you traveled on a map,
view a summary of your workout data, create goals and more. For indoor
activities when the GPS isn’t in use, you won’t see mapping in Garmin Connect,
but you’ll still have a record of your workout data.
Fast and Accurate
Forerunner 210 features HotFix® satellite prediction, which means it locks
onto satellites quickly so you can be out the door and on with your run in no
time. It also has a high-sensitivity GPS receiver to stay locked onto
satellites, even near tall buildings or under tree cover.
