Swim Tips
The Forerunner cannot record strokes or
lengths during drill strokes or kick sets.
Garmin recommends that you record drills
as a separate swim interval using the LAP
key.
Similarly, use the LAP key to record rest
intervals separately. This improves the
accuracy of your swim data. If you do
not use the LAP key for rest intervals or
stop the timer, the Forerunner may take
7-8 seconds to display data for the last
completed length.
Using the Countdown Timer
You can use the countdown timer to
automatically start the Forerunner timer
after a specified countdown.
For example, you can use a 30-second
countdown before you start a timed sprint.
You can also set a 5-minute countdown
before starting a boat race. During the
countdown, history is not recorded.
NOTE: The countdown timer is only
available in “Other” sport mode.
