Features
You’re a dedicated runner looking for a smaller-sized GPS running smartwatch with a bright, colorful display and advanced training and recovery features. Look no further.
- RUNNING ECONOMY — Measure your overall energy efficiency while running — using long-term running volume, stride length and step speed loss, which tells you how much you slow down when your foot hits the ground — when you pair your watch with compatible heart rate monitor (sold separately).
- RUNNING TOLERANCE — Better understand the impact each run has on your body, and get a recommended weekly maximum mileage so you can keep training effectively without taking on too much.
- FULL-COLOR- MAPPING — Whether you’re running on city streets or riding densely covered trails, the Forerunner 970 smartwatch provides full-color, built-in mapping — now even more dynamic, intuitive and simpler to follow.
- GARMIN COACH — Reach your goals with Garmin Coach training plans for running, cycling, strength and fitness; some even adapt based on your health and fitness metrics.
- TRAINING READINESS — From the moment you wake up, get a readiness score based on your sleep quality, recovery, training load and more, so you can determine whether it’s a good day to go hard — or take it easy.
- BUILT-IN SPEAKER AND MICROPHONE — Make and take phone calls from your watch when it’s paired to your smartphone. Plus, control watch functions with voice command — or use your smartphone’s voice assistant to respond to text messages and more.
