Variable flashlight intensities and a red safety light provide you with greater awareness while training in the dark, giving you adequate lighting when you need it. The flashlight's flashing mode can even match your running pace.

This feature measures your ability to maintain prolonged effort and combines training data from all your athletic pursuits to help you understand how training affects your overall endurance. This dynamic measurement uses VO2 max, short-term/long-term training load, and other factors to gauge the progress of your fitness beyond VO2 max.

Your health and training data should be easily interpreted and provide you with practical information. Start each day with a personalized morning report and see a daily summary of health and wellness information. Use the training readiness feature - which checks a multitude of different health metrics to help you maximize training effectiveness and recovery1 - to avoid exhaustion.

Those preparing for the next race can use the free Garmin Coach app to prepare for 5K, 10K, or Half Marathon, or use the race widget for training tips, time prediction, and a week of suggested exercises. For long-distance runners, the epix Pro series is equipped with useful tools such as PacePro™, ClimbPro, real-time stamina, and wrist-based running power.

Before you start, create or find a ready-made route on Garmin Connect and transfer it automatically to your watch. Create round-trip courses from your wrist using Trendline™ popularity routing, which uses routes chosen by locals. The bright, AMOLED display brings all these details to life and makes your journey easier.
