I just got a forerunner 305 and hrm chest strap, but right now I'm running indoors. It isn't working to track my calories burned. How do I get it to work while running on the treadmill? Since I'm not going any distance, its not computing, but it does give a heart rate reading.

Get a footpod. However, make sure the 305 supports it.0

The 305 is compatible with the foot pod. You can down load your heart rate and estimate calorie burn off of your heart rate. Your treadmill will track how far you have gone.0
