PacePro Training
Many runners like to wear a pace band during a race to help
achieve their race goal. The PacePro feature allows you to
create a custom pace band based on distance and pace or
distance and time. You can also create a pace band for a known
course to maximize your pace effort based on elevation
changes.
You can create a PacePro plan using the Garmin Connect app.
You can preview the splits and elevation plot before you run the
course.
