Garmin Forerunner 955

A watch that supports your aspirations

The truth is you don't need a watch to run. And you don't need much of a watch if your weekly routine is a few easy miles around the neighborhood. But if you're serious — really serious — about your running and fitness, you should be using Garmin's Forerunner955 GPS running watch as your running watch. The 955 employs the data it collects from your heart rate measurements and your activities to provide some pretty amazing insights:

And by using the Garmin Connect app, you'll have access to free training plans, or the ability to create your own. 

On the run

Forerunner 955 handles all your run training with ease, providing accurate measurements of time, distance, elevation change, pace, and more. Thanks to its multi-band satellite capabilities it offers superior accuracy, and its built-in maps mean that you'll always know how to get back even on the longest runs. Add an optional Running Dynamics Pod or external heart rate strap, and Forerunner 955 will help you with your running form by measuring metrics like run power, stride length, and vertical oscillation — helping you become a more efficient runner.

Tunes to go

Now you can skip the hassle of toting your smartphone or music player with you when you're on the road, trail, or treadmill. This watch features built-in storage for up to 1000 songs, so you can plug into your computer, download your favorites, then listen through Bluetooth® headphones (not included). Forerunner 955 also supports select streaming services like Spotify as well.

Smart notifications and more

Forerunner 955 works with your smartphone to let you receive texts, emails, and alerts on your watch screen. And your workouts upload automatically to Garmin Connect, where you can share them with your friends through social media or many popular fitness-tracking apps. And when your workout is done, you can use Garmin Pay™ to buy food and beverages, so you can leave your wallet at home.

Plus, you customize the display with Garmin's Face-it™ app, changing the background to any picture stored on your smartphone. And if you like capturing the action, it even works as a remote control for Garmin's VIRB™ and VIRB Elite action cameras.

Enjoy the ride

Forerunner 955 is a perfect cycling buddy, whether your choice of venue is single-track or smooth asphalt. It will accurately measure your speed, distance, and pace, and it's fully compatible with Garmin's Vector™ pedals or ANT+ power meters, so you can track and record your power output throughout your ride. This watch is also compatible with Garmin's Varia™ lights and rear-view radar systems for extra safety.

Even more activities

Need more? When you head out onto the trails, you can rely on the preloaded maps and breadcrumb tracking to help you stay on course. Forerunner 955 also comes equipped with an altimeter, barometer, and compass, giving you valuable information you may need in the backcountry. Hitting the links? Forerunner 955 taps into an extensive database of golf courses to let you know accurate distances to the green, doglegs, or layup points. And that hard workout at the gym is covered as well, with multiple options to record indoor activities.
