Garmin

The Forerunner 201 is a personal training device designed for the high-performance athlete as well as the recreational walker or runner. It offers an easy-to-read display, adjustable wristband and an integrated GPS sensor. It is compact, lightweight and waterproof.

The Forerunner 201 is the ultimate personal trainer. It uses GPS satellites to calculate speed, distance and pace information so you can focus on your run. You don’t even have to think about starting and stopping the timer or punching the lap button to record stats; Forerunner will do it automatically. When you need motivation, Forerunner’s Virtual Partner® feature lets you input time, distance and pace goals, and then shows if you’re ahead or lagging.

Another feature that sets the Forerunner 201 ahead of the pack is its built-in GPS navigation capabilities. Athletes can mark specific locations, look up and navigate to these points on an electronic plotter, retrace their steps to a starting point or reverse their normal route for variety in their routine. For serious athletes, Garmin provides users with performance-tracking software (free download) to analyze athletic activity over time. Data can be transferred from the Forerunner 201 to the user’s PC, so he or she can plot and analyze performance and make changes to their training regimen.

ForeRunner 201 Software
Garmin Training Center™
Garmin Training Center software, originally designed for the Forerunner® 301, has been such a powerful training tool that Garmin adapted it for the 201. All new Forerunner 201 units come with Garmin Training Center, and anyone who already owns a Forerunner 201 can download the software for free right here.


Note: if you are currently using Forerunner Logbook software and would like to transfer your workout history to Garmin Training Center, you can export a data file from Logbook and import it to Training Center.

Garmin Training Center has a simple user interface and allows you to transfer workout history from the 201 to the PC for storage and analysis. Your workout tracks are overlaid on a map page so can analyze pace and speed data at any point. Indefinite storage capabilities on the PC allow you to review your workout histories over time. Garmin Training Center offers additional capabilities for 301 users, including the ability to download customized workouts to their unit. These capabilities are not enabled in the Garmin Training Center software for 201 users.

Forerunner® Logbook™
Logbook is the original software that was developed for the Forerunner 201. It allows you to download your training history data from your 201 to your PC for analysis and archive purposes. With the introduction of the newer, more comprehensive Training Center™ software for the 201, Logbook will no longer be supported.
