Using PacePro on Garmin Watches
The PacePro™ feature offers pace guidance on the watch during outdoor run activities to help you stay on track during training. When PacePro is applied to a course loaded to your watch, it analyzes elevation changes along the course to calculate a pace strategy. A PacePro Strategy is created by using a course found in the Garmin Connect™ app. The strategy calculates when to increase or decrease your pace along the course for the best overall pace.
