Follow Claire and Mike on their 6 week challenge
It’s simple; just follow the training plans which have been supplied by professional sports coaches at Full Potential for the 6 week period. Use one of Garmin’s Forerunner watches while you run and upload the information online at Garmin Connect you can literally see your results!
Many people overlook the importance of exercising at an optimum heart rate but using an FR60 or any of the Garmin Forerunner range enables you to constantly monitor your heart rate when linked up to a heart rate monitor. The ANT+™ stick allows you to wirelessly transfer the data from your watch to your PC and see it in your free Garmin Connect account.
Garmin has taken two members of the general public and challenged them to train for a 6 week period using the new Garmin FR60 and Garmin Connect whilst documenting their fitness journeys via their own video diaries.
