Customizing Your Device
Training Effect value increases, telling you
how the activity has improved your fitness.
Training Effect is determined by your user
profile information, heart rate, duration,
and intensity of your activity.
It is important to know that your training
effect numbers (1.0–5.0) may seem
abnormally high during your first few runs.
It takes several activities for the device to
learn your aerobic fitness.

Data Fields

four training pages for each sport. The
data fields you customize are saved for
the active sport. Some data fields are not
available because they are specific to a
sport mode.

statute or metric units. Data fields with the
