Garmin Forerunner 265S 42mm Smartwatch w/ Black Bezel & Pink/Whitestone Silicone Band

Curate your ideal fitness routine with the Garmin Forerunner 265S. As soon as you wake up in the morning, this smartwatch will send an overview of your training outlook, a readiness score and sleep score. Your readiness score can detect if you should exercise or rest based on recovery, sleep quality and more. The race widget gives you daily suggested workouts and training trips too for extra prep before your next marathon or 10K. If you're seeking more fitness guidance, you can access free training plans from coaching experts and courses on the Garmin Connect app. Before embarking on your next race, a built-in predictor can estimate what your pace may be based on past stats. Your smartwatch can even tell you how much recovery time you need and track your energy levels with Body Battery™ Energy Monitoring. Those with menstrual cycles will benefit from the Garmin Forerunner 265S too as you can track and log periods and pregnancy on this device. Not only will you get wrist-based running metrics like stride length, cadence and ground contact time, but you'll also get a wrist-based heart rate to keep track of how hard you're working in real time.

VO2 Max allows you to see your current fitness level and set goals, tracking your progress and changes over time. Outside of exercise time, the Garmin Forerunner 265S can even track your stress levels to help boost your mental health. The Multi-Band GPS and Satiq™ Technology promote the most precise positioning accuracy and extended battery life on this smartwatch. Not a runner? The Garmin Forerunner 265S can still be an ideal fitness tracker for you by switching between multisport profiles for your ideal workout. The smartwatch also shares similar abilities with a smartphone in that it can stream music, perform contactless payments and receive notifications. For additional safety, if an incident occurs or you run into danger, the Garmin Forerunner 265S will send a message with your current location. Family and friends can ease their worries as well by viewing your real-time location with the LiveTrack feature.
