Anyone have a Garmin Forerunner 305? Just got one & trying to figure it out. Any tips or suggestions? Can't wait to go for a run & try it out! :smile:

    I don't have the 305 but have a FR60 and a Edge 800. The manuals I got seemed to be not for the right unit on the FR60 but what I found was the online videos made using it a lot easier. Hope that helps you.

    LOVE my Garmin! I have the 305, dh has the 205. Can't run without it. Don't expect the HRM to give you accurate calories burned however. It's only a heart rate training tool, not for calculating calories. My watch band broke within a few months and I bought the velcro strap....it's awesome!
