Summary: 1 Stars

I have owned this worthless item for a while now. To this date, this item has not helped me to improve anything at all. I spend most of my time just getting the thing to work. So far all it has done consistently is dump my information, suck battery life, and take my free time. I am constantly pairing the item, constantly trying to get it to sync correctly with my computer, and so far, I've lost several running sessions because it blanks out on me and dumps my information. I have to unscrew the back to "re-adjust" the battery so it starts to work, and it has 4 of the smallest screws and the battery is fixed in so tight, you have to peel back some fitted plastic piece just to get it out. There's no gps unit in it to tell you how far you have run. You have to buy three other accessories just to get the one benefit of tracking your distance and time, whether you're riding a bicycle, or running on the street. For that amount of money, you might as well just buy a hand held gps and a regular heart rate monitor, because this item is just going to waste all of your time.

Get the Data You Need
Train inside or outdoors. The Forerunner 50 provides you with instant workout data, including training time, pace, distance, lap pace, lap time, lap distance, average and best pace, calories, and maximum and average heart rate. It also records both lap and detailed data. Available in three different versions, the Forerunner 50 comes bundled with different accessories (also available separately) to help you track your progress for whatever moves you.

Listen to Your Heart
Forerunner 50 with wireless heart rate 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.

Measure Speed and Distance
Garmin's wireless Foot Pod (sold separately) lets you track your running speed, distance, and calories burned while on the treadmill or pavement. Just snap the Foot Pod into a clip on your shoelaces, and it's ready to send data to Forerunner 50 as soon as you start moving. After your workout, Forerunner 50 automatically transfers the data to your computer when within range.

Track Your Ride
When paired with an optional speed/cadence sensor (sold separately), Forerunner 50 tracks the speed and distance of your cycling workouts. The wireless speed/cadence sensor attaches securely to your bike and measures your pedaling cadence and wheel speed as you ride. You can even use it to train indoors because the sensor attaches to your rear wheel.

Run, Sync, Store, and Share
You've logged the miles, and now you want to store them. With Garmin's innovative ANT+ wireless technology, your workouts are automatically transferred to your computer when your device is within range. No cables, no hookups. The data's just there, ready for you to analyze, categorize, and share through Garmin's online community, Garmin Connect, or the Garmin Training Center software.
