My Forerunner 45 was no longer holding its charge through a full marathon, so I updated to the Forerunner 55. It has everything I need to train at an affordable price. You can get more bells and whistles in a higher grade, pricier model, but if you don't need it, this garmin will do fine: I have it set up to give heart rate, current pace, distance, overall pace, and in lap distance and in lap pace. I have to look at options to see if there is an elevation ascent widget I can add in. My next marathon has more climbing profile than my typical marathon, so I'm trying to train to specific uphill needs.

I had watched a youtube video on how to use the watch before I received it and it was just as easy as I expected to set up and go on my first run! I had been using the apple watch till now and was always frustrated at doing distances over 10 miles or activities over 90 min because the watch would die but the forerunner 55 has fantastic battery life. It does everything most runners or cyclists would want, and besides the lack of a hiking feature or power metrics, it's great

Excellent run tracker

Love it, got it about 3 weeks ago, when my other tracker went dead. I’m an avid runner, been running for years, l thought I’ve reached my threshold plateau until I got this Forerunner with free running coach programs, so I’m starting to pace myself better. Looks like I can do better with my new running coach with Garmin! If you are a new runner and you want a Tracker, go with Garmin. It will give you a baseline running capability tracking and your VO2 max, it will also establish an Emergency personal contact in case you need help, but always listen to your body when you’re out running, it’s always better to be safe.

From what I’ve done so far, I can say that the Forerunner 55’s running GPS is pretty darn good, though I run in decently open spaces. I haven’t used it much for biking but we’ll see. The main complaint is the pool swims: if you want a swim tracker, pay for one. This watch has consistently been off by 400 meters plus and is all out of wack in the pool. Otherwise, it’s perfect for a starter.

Constant need for pairing

1 out of 5 stars
Run87k - 15 days ago
originally posted on Garmin
I bought a Forerunner 55 to replace a 35 that I had for seven years. My 35 stopped reading my heart rate, measured distance incorrectly and the light quit. It had served me well so I bought what I thought would be it's replacement. The 55 I received would not stay paired with the Garmin app. I needed to pair every time I used the app to sync. It also took minutes to acquire the starting location. I called support and got a replacement. The replacement does the same thing. My 35 would go months without needing to be paired. It would also acquire the starting location in seconds not minutes. The 55 is unnecessarily complicated and the instructions for pairing are wrong. Also when pairing the app has me register the watch again.

I've owned quite a number of Garmin devices, and this was my first major disappointment. The screen is too dark, the heart rate monitor ( main reason for buying it ) worked inconsistently. The controls were clunky. I sent it back for a refund.
