Concerning the daily suggested workout, the Forerunner 55 takes your training history, fitness level and last runs into account but doesn’t transfer the workout towards the Training Status – simply because the Forerunner 55 doesn’t support it.
But the Forerunner 55 most likely will support PacePro. It’s named ‘lite’ because you can’t create PacePro strategies on the watch itself. Instead you have to use Garmin Connect to create pacing strategies for routes and distances and sync them to the watch afterwards. For most runners this should be absolutely fine.
Though the Forerunner offers a lot features dedicated to sports, it also provides a lot functions concerning activity tracking, health and well-being:
- Activity tracking (steps, distance, calories)
- Sleep monitoring
- Stress monitoring
- Body Battery
- Pregnancy tracking
- Move alert
- Respiration rate
Paired to a smartphone the Forerunner 55 will display messages from your phone. In case of an incident the paired smartphone will share your last GPS location with persons you added to Garmin Connect as emergency contacts. It does so automatically if you stumble and fall or manually if you trigger it.
