"Get the training information you need for peak performance during workouts in and out of the water with the swimproof Garmin Forerunner® 310XT. Waterproof to 50m (165 ft.), Forerunner 310XT is an ideal training tool for triathletes who want to time their swim and get speed and distance data while running and biking. GPS satellites accurately calculate speed, distance and pace information; GPS receiver provides rapid first fix and is sensitive enough to acquire signals under cloud cover. Navigation capabilities let you mark locations, find locations or navigate back to the starting point. ANT+ wireless technology allows the Forerunner 310XT to communicate with other ANT+ enabled devices, such as PowerTap, SRM and Quarq power meters (not included). ANT+ wireless technology lets you automatically transfer data between your computer and Forerunner without even taking the watch off; compatible with Mac and PC computers. Use the Garmin Connect community website to track your time, speed, distance and calories burned; store and share routes with other Forerunner users on the website. Website also allows users to categorize and design workouts based on activity—prior workouts can be saved by day and week designations. Wireless data transfer can be used to send courses, goals and workouts from your computer to the Forerunner 310XT before heading out for a jog. You can also share workout information and compete against other users' recorded courses by wirelessly transferring data to other Forerunner 310XT units nearby. 20 hr. battery life provides accurate pace, speed and distance data for ultra endurance athletes; features a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. Optional foot pod (sold separately) transmits speed/distance data without the use of satellites, so the Forerunner 310XT can also be used indoors."

"If you look for training "watches" - sporttester for running, nordic walking, cycling, rowing I can recommended to you. Forerunner 310XT finds GPS signals immediately, without problems among trees or buildings. There is a little bit slower. Really working 18-19 hours with GPS, nice and big and well-arranged display´s functions."
