Tried out the Garmin PacePro feature on my new Fenix 6X with a 30KM run (with the dog!) I show how to set it up, what data it shows in use and the benefits of running with it.

I'm really impressed your dog can run such a distance.

I've never actually seen a dog slowing down and stopping, unless it's forced to, so I'm not even sure they ever run out of energy unlike humans...

Thank you for posting this video. I started running - jogging actually - in January and got a Garmin Forerunner in March. The watch is amazing and has motivated me to do more. I’m surprised that I actually enjoy getting out for a jog. I have a 5K race coming up and wanted to use PacePro to help me get through it. Your video is very helpful in showing how to move through the various screens and settings.

I laughed about your comment on the Apple Watch. Mine is literally sitting on my bedside table and has been since I got the garmin. There is just no comparison in any way when it comes to its fitness features and capabilities. My wife has also switched from her Samsung watch to a garmin and loves it.

Great job on the Wolverine Medal, I am 66 retired lower back bulging disc issues so I am using the metrics from the Fenix watch with the Garmin Running Dynamics Pad to reduce ground contact time along with other metrics.

I believe but i am not sure thats indicating where you should be at the moment.. like a indicator.. have you observed that aswell?
@bigman6064 жыл бұрын
Mark, you mention after switching to the Garmin losing the ability to listen to music/take calls because of the lack of a cellular in the fenix device. Well a workaround of instead of carrying your phone is to upload music to the Apple Watch (take of the strap if you like) and stuff it into a pocket and listen to music off it while using your fenix to handle the workouts. Just a thought.

@michealsmith48594 жыл бұрын
Jason oliver I do this. Wear my FR945 on my left wrist (chest strap also) and AWS4 on my right wrist. I actually track the workout with both watches. That way I get the detailed data on Connect, but also meet my goals on the AW, which I wear most of the day while at work. I also get to leave my phone behind and control music with the AW. Plus it’s interesting to see the GPS difference and data differences between the two watches.
@steveforde74753 жыл бұрын
Why not just load the music onto the 6X? I think al 6X's come with music functionality and sufficient memory. I've got a couple of Gb of music on mine.

Super video. Tnx Mark! Got myself Fenix 6X Pro. Do you by any chance find the turn-by-turn unreliable pse? Sometimes I get it (actually both before and after turns on a course) but other times I get to a t-junction on a track and just silence from the watch. I have to be on the map display, or have memorized the course in order to use PacePro. Just wondered how or if you got reliable TbT so you can look at data fields while running and rely on prompts for turns. Thanks in advance if you have time to reply. Cheers, Neil
