The Garmin Forerunner 620 is a full-featured GPS running watch that will help you maximize your workout and blow past personal goals. On its own, the Forerunner 620 can monitor your distance traveled, speed and pace. It also has a built-in accelerometer so you can track distance traveled and pace while you’re indoors or don’t have a GPS signal. When the 620 is paired with a hear rate monitor it can analyze the data it collects to provide you with your VO2 max which is the maximum volume of oxygen you can consume per minute based on your weight and maximum performance level. This watch can also be used in combination with Garmin’s HRM-Run monitor that tracks you cadence, vertical oscillation and ground contact time to help you maximize your running economy. The 620 also allows you to upload your running information to Garmin Connect so you can track your progress over time and post fitness updates on social media. This particular Garmin model is factory refurbished. Maximize Your Workout While you run, the 620 analyzes all the information it collects to provide you with a range of fitness data you can use to improve your workouts. It can track your heart rate and compare that against distance, speed and pace information to provide your VO2 max. With this information you can optimize your running regimens and predict the finish time of your next race. The watch can also provide feedback on your running form when paired with a Garmin HRM-Run monitor. This can help prevent injuries related to incorrect form while running. Connected GPS The Forerunner 620 is GPS enabled so it can track the distance you travel, speed and pace in real time while you run. When you pair the 620 with a compatible smartphone, you can open up an even wider range of functionality. You can update your progress I real time, post run information to social media and download free training plans from Garmin Connect. Train and Race the Way You Want Forerunner 620 features separate activity profiles for Ride/Race/Run, and makes it easy to switch between them, for viewing only the information you want to see. The “Ride” profile defaults to speed instead of pace, sets the activity as cycling for Garmin Connect, and supports cycling speed and pedaling cadence measurements when paired with Garmin wireless speed and cadence sensors. The “Race” profile is an additional running profile that allows you to set up and quickly switch to different data fields for races than those you use for day-to-day training. Rest Day or Run Day With Forerunner 620, you don’t have to guess how much recovery time you need between workouts. It knows your physiology based on your heart rate data, so it factors this against your last workout and then shows how much time before you are fully recovered and ready for your next hard running workout. When wearing HRM-Run, the 620 provides a recovery check, which is a real-time indication of your state of recovery within the first several minutes of your run. When you’ve completed a run, the recovery time shows how long before you should attempt another hard work out. Color coding on the gauge makes it easy to interpret — green means you’re good to go. When you see red and a recovery time of more than 3 days, you might consider taking a rest day or just doing a light recovery run.
