Reach and keep track of your running goals with the Forerunner 55 from Garmin, whether trying to improve your 5K speed or training for a marathon. Keep track of your distance, time, and pace as you stay on track. With just five buttons, it's never been easier to mark a lap or skip to the next track on your workout playlist with a quick press.

Real-time data allows you to track your heart rate, steps, calories and sleep. Plus, when worn 24/7, it estimates your energy reserves so you can work out at the best time for your body.

Best of all, when paired with your smartphone, you get notified of incoming calls and texts, so you'll never miss any important messages on your run. Sharing your location with family and friends has never been easier, while accident detection can automatically send an alert to your chosen contacts - for extra piece of mind.
