Garmin Forerunner 101 GPS Speed and Distance Watch
Garmin Forerunner
101 GPS watch - monitor offers riders an easy-to-read display,
ergonomic wristband, and integrated Garmin GPS sensor that provides
precise speed, distance, and pace data. It's a compact, lightweight,
accurate training assistant with performance tracking, auto-lap,
auto-pause and more. The Garmin Forerunner 101 is easy to use right
out of the box and delivers the benefits of GPS technology at an
affordable price.
While out riding your horse
with the Garmin Forerunner 101 means you have a constant "pacer"
with you because the unit provides a Virtual Partner. This
unique feature allows you to set your horse's training goal by configuring
your Virtual Partner's pace and workout distance. You'll get a graphic
perspective of your performance by viewing your pace in relation
to your Virtual Partner's pace, so you can always see at a glance
if you're horse is keeping up or falling behind.
It has most
of the features of the Forerunner
201, but operates on two AAA batteries (the 201 uses a rechargeable
cell). Also, the 101 does NOT have PC interface functionality. (because
there is no PC option, the user cannot upgrade the firmware, as
they can on the Garmin Forerunner 201). The Garmin Forerunner 101
stores lap histories for up to two years to provide an archive of
workout performance over time. Users can retrieve lap data for previous
workouts by date, week, month, or over a specific time interval.
For riders who want to train in areas they may be unfamiliar with,
the Garmin Forerunner 101 also doubles as a navigator. Users can
mark their starting point as a specific location (HOME), see their
current position on the plotter display, and follow an electronic
breadcrumb trail back to their starting point.

owners comments about the Garmin Forerunner 101 GPS watch : It may
be quite large, but once on your wrist you hardly notice it. What's
great about this unit is it's ease of use and easy to read display
while running, even at pace.
Good
features, as with most of speed and distance watches, are, pace
alarm, current speed, current pace and run time. What is pretty
unique is the Garmin Forerunner 101's ability to show you real time
if you are ahead or behind pac (using the VIRTUAL PARTNER mode)
VERY USEFUL. |

This is one of the most valuable features on the Garmin Forerunner

be set to provide interval alarms for both effort and rest/recovery.
These alarms can be either distance based, or time based, or even
a combination of the two. For example, eg 1) the interval could
be 1 Mile, the recovery could be 3 minutes, this could be set
to repeat 3 times. eg 2) the interval could be 5 minutes, the
recovery could be 3 minutes and the unit could repeat this action
5 times. eg 3) the interval could be 0.5 Mile, the recovery could
be 0.25 Mile, this could be set to repeat 6 times. Interval training
is a very effective and proven method of improving fitness and
increasing running speed. This
option is only available on the latest versions of Garmin Forerunner
101. You are guaranteed the very latest features, options, fixes
and patches, when you purchase from BHIP Ltd.
