A new addition to the ultra-classic Garmin Forerunner line series. A step ahead of the popular 220 series, the 225 introduces an optical heartrate sensor for hyper-accurate BPM data without the need for a chest strap. Ideal for performance-oriented runners looking to up their game, the 225 features everything you need to crush your next PR: a built-in accelerometer for capturing distance and pace data without a foot pod; high-resolution and customizable training calendars; a personal record feature; and a heart rate progress analysis feature for tracking fitness over the long term. Whether you’re hitting the trail, track, or treadmill, the 225 provides huge training potential in a surprisingly affordable package.
