About the Training Calendar
The training calendar on your device is an extension of the
training calendar or schedule you set up in Garmin Connect.
After you have added a few workouts to the Garmin Connect
calendar, you can send them to your device. All scheduled
workouts sent to the device appear in the calendar widget.
When you select a day in the calendar, you can view or do the
workout. The scheduled workout stays on your device whether
you complete it or skip it. When you send scheduled workouts
from Garmin Connect, they overwrite the existing training
calendar.
