Product Description
Jump start your training with Forerunner 50. This sleek sports watch is ideal for running, cycling and other fitness activities, and comes with a wireless heart rate monitor. It provides you with instant workout data including training time, pace, distance, lap pace, lap time, lap distance, average and best pace, calories, maximum and average heart rate. It also records both lap and detailed data. Forerunner 50 also comes bundled with a wireless heart rate monitor. It effectively tracks and records your heart rate while you work out, providing instant feedback about how hard your heart is working. The included digital heart rate monitor continuously tracks heart beats per minute which is wirelessly transmitted to the Forerunner 50. Even train in a certain heart rate zone to improve your fitness level. And well after your workout is done, Forerunner 50 is still working, wirelessly transmitting your training data to your PC. Plus, with Garmin's innovative optional ANT + Sport wireless technology, your workouts are automatically transferred to your computer when your device is within range, with no need for cables or hookups. You can then analyze, store and share data with the Garmin Connect online community!

5 out of 5 stars Very good experience   September 19, 2008
Rogueag (Texas)
I have been using this Garmin 50 for about a year. I really like the wireless transfer of information plus how the Garmin calendar highlights dates of activity. I have no problems with contact for the chest strap. I just wet my chest with a little water and fasten the strap. I am purchasing another one for a friend to use because of my good overall experience.


4 out of 5 stars Great product, with a few short comings   June 24, 2008

This is a great product. Fits nicely on the wrist (male, average, 180cm, 80kg).

* Data transfers easily to the PC (a little testy at times, but the job gets done).

* You don't even know you have the footpod on. It covers about 3 - 4 lace overlaps on my shoe, and incredibly light. Footpod was out 4 metres on a measured 878 metre track.

* HRM takes a little getting used to because the front part (the sensor) is plastic (though fairly bendy).

The bad:
* Absolutely terrible user manual. What were they thinking? Slightly better than no user manual at all. Would have been just as useful written in Russian.

* Difficult (at least for me) to tell the difference between the various alerts (am I running too slow, too fast, heart rate is too low or too high, did I just complete a lap?).



4 out of 5 stars Forerunner 50 w/ Speed and cadence sensor   June 19, 2008

I needed a HRM and also wanted something to track my bike training. I looked at GPS units, but the ones in my price range appear bulky; the Forerunner 50 with the Speed and Cadence Sensor is a very good alternative. Monitor works great and the download to the Garmin Training Center is easy where you can review and analyze your workout. Only negative is the instructions are not easy to follow especially for some of the less used functions. Over all, this unit has exceeded my expectations and I would recommend it to anyone.

I purchased the 50 for my wife. I have the 305 and would have bought her the same, but she wanted something less bulky. The 50 was the right size, but no gps.
