    • NOW PLAYING

    You're a swimmer, a cyclist and a runner, and you crave data and details. Get the Garmin Forerunner® 910XT GPS heart rate monitor to track your performance and help you hit a new personal record.

    • Water resistant to 50m (165 ft.), 910XT handles open-water and pool swimming; watch measures swimming distance, identifies strokes and tracks strokes and pool lengths
    • Computes your "Swim Golf" (SWOLF) score, which is determined by adding the number of strokes taken per lap to the time it took to swim the lap, to help improve efficiency
    • On land, the 910XT uses GPS technology to accurately capture your time, distance, speed, pace and more to help you meet your running and biking goals
    • High-sensitivity GPS receiver stays locked onto satellites, even near tall buildings and under tree cover; HotFix® satellite prediction locks onto satellites quickly
    • GPS also captures the path you travel while swimming in open water so you can analyze it later to help improve your technique
    • Chest-strap heart rate monitor helps you train in your target zone to optimize performance while you run and bike; monitor can be worn in water but will not transmit data
    • Features an advanced calorie-consumption formula that calculates calories burned based on changes in the user's heart rate during aerobic activity
    • Virtual Racer™ feature lets you race against your previous best time or challenge other users' times that have been uploaded to the Garmin Connect™ website
    • Virtual Partner® allows you to compete against a static pace that you set before heading out for your run
    • Track the intensity of your workout with the Training Effect feature; Training Effect is calculated based on user profile, heart rate and difficulty of the activity
    • Interval training function lets you set up custom exercise sessions and automatically see your pace for each interval
    • Switch between sport modes with just 1 button press, so you don't waist precious time in transition
    • Barometric altimeter provides accurate elevation data, including ascent, descent and grade
    • Mark locations, save locations or navigate back to the starting point with the basic navigation capabilities
    • Customize the display of training pages for each sport; set up vibration alerts to nudge you when you hit a split time, need to eat or want feedback so you can stay on track
    • ANT+ wireless technology lets you automatically transfer data between your computer and Forerunner without even taking the watch off; compatible with Mac and PC computers
    • Use the Garmin Connect community website to track your time, speed, distance, swimming metrics and calories burned; store and share routes with other athletes on the website
    • In Garmin Connect, you can see the route you traveled on a map, view a summary of your workout, create goals and find new courses
    • Built-in, rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides up to 20 hrs. of battery life for ultra endurance athletes
    • Optional foot pod (sold separately) transmits speed/distance data without the use of satellites, so the Forerunner 910XT can also be used indoors
    • Forerunner 910XT tracks your cycling workouts when paired with a GSC 10 Speed and Cadence Sensor, sold separately
    • ANT+ wireless technology allows the Forerunner 910XT to communicate with other ANT+ enabled power meters (not included)
    • Includes: Garmin Forerunner 910XT wrist unit, HRM chest strap, USB ANT stick, AC adapter, charging clip, expander wrist strap and owner's manual

        Comments about Garmin Forerunner 910XT GPS Heart Rate Monitor:

        I received my 910XT and was able to do a swim and and a bike so far. I've upgraded from my previous 405.

        Overall:
        I love this watch and it performs better than my previous watch (and I can swim with it). I like having buttons even after using my 405 for 3 years. Firmware upgrades in the future will likely solve some of the new watch glitches. One feature that would be nice is if it could display the time when it's not being used as a sport watch (other Garmins can, so why not). For triathletes and those who like to exercise across multiple sports, this watch is great.

        Swim:
        I swam two intervals (1/2 mile each) alternating freestyle and breaststroke. It always recognized the freestyle lengths, but was 50/50 for my breaststroke. Half of them showed up as backstroke. This is not a huge deal at all for me. Over 64 lengths it only added one extra length and I think I caused it by adjusting my goggles during that length. The only thing to add to the swim feature would be the ability to create workouts like you can in the run and bike modes.

        Run:
        It's nice to have 4 data displays on one screen so it doesn't have to cycle through screens. I haven't run with it yet, but it paired easily with my foot pod and HRM.

        Bike:
        Worked great on the ride today. It was nice to have such a huge display you can glance at while bombing down technical trails.

        I would have purchased this from REI, but they're on backorder.

        Comments about Garmin Forerunner 910XT GPS Heart Rate Monitor:

        The idea behind this version of Garmin is incredible, however, apparently the unit the I received is defective. The battery never shows as charged, it will frequently just turn off in the middle of a workout, and it is near impossible to turn on without button mashing. When I can get it functioning, I LOVE it. I am about to swap it out, thanks to the great customer service at REI, and I hope I have better luck with my new unit. From what I have read, I received a defective device. Will be happy to change my review if my new experience yields a different result!

          Comments about Garmin Forerunner 910XT GPS Heart Rate Monitor:

          I have been using the Garmin 910 for about 2 months now and am absolutely loving it. My workouts each week consist of a lot of running, cycling, and swimming. Before I bought the 910, I used a combination of training tools: my Forerunner 405 for running; a combination of a bike computer, heart rate monitor, and MapMyRide data for cycling; and a lap counter with stopwatch for swimming. Life has become so much simpler now that I can use the 910 to replace all of the above.

          The 910 is a reasonable size so that you don't feel like you're lugging a huge bulky piece of equipment around on your wrist like some of Garmin's previous models. Having used a couple of other GPS-enabled watches, I have to say that Garmin has really made the 910 fairly easy to use. The satellites are located quickly and it is pretty simple to set the watch to display your preferred data for each sport.

          I also have always enjoyed the Garmin Connect site, where you can easily view your workout data, track your progress, and see exhaustive details from each workout.

          The only negative that I feel the need to point out is that I have come to doubt the accuracy of the altimeter on the 910. After comparing my data from several cycling workouts to the altitude data obtained from MapMyRide and from a friend's data from the older Garmin model, the 910 has significantly exaggerated the amount of climbing on my rides, usually by several thousand feet.

            great watch... I love everything about it. I love it in the water, on a run or on the bike. Right now I can't seem how they could improve on it. I have been running with gamins for over 10 years and this watch by far is the best. Nice job Garmin...

                1. Great overall product
                2. Counting length- the real time count may be off at times. For me, I believe it is because I am not a great swimmer so my hand motion/breathing cycles get messed up so i may inadvertantly accelerate therefore causing is to sense me "coming of the wall". This can be easily seen when the data is downloaded and can quickly determine how many laps you really swam. Regardless, it is still more accurate than me counting my laps swimming a mile in a 25 yards length pool. I can not just think about my stoke etc.
                3. Biking and running is flawless.

                I returned the 610 for the 910xt - the additional battery life was really what spurned me to make the commitment and buy the more expensive watch. Having a proper altimeter and being water proof are also nice features.

                I don't mind the bulkiness though as others have noted it would be nice if Garmin provided a simple software update to allow it to perform like a normal watch - much like the 610 does when it's in 'sleep mode.'

                Comments about Garmin Forerunner 910XT GPS Heart Rate Monitor:

                If your a self coached athlete I would highly recommend this device. Interval Training, Virtual partner/racer, Calories, Heart Rate, GPS are just some of my favorite properties. You get a myriad of screen options and its quick to find out what you like to see the most on each screen. I just used the "virtual racer," on a single track trail run, beating my one year younger self. Calorie, distance, time, hrt rate notices all a plus. Virtual Racer + Notices = clear plan for tackling Big Races. Small learning curve, get to know the device and [$] won't seem as bad. The physical design and swimming options help, but may not be necessary, I had the Garmin 310xt and am still on the fence on whether the price change is worth it. Either way Im sold on Garmin and REI.

                    I'll admit I have not yet used all the function on this Garmin. I did research all other options and I found this to be exactly what I needed. I'm training for a 62 mile one day hike in April so I needed something to track how fast I was walking each mile and how far I was going. The battery life is excellent at about 20 hours so long enough for those longer events.It gives off a little chime and buzzes each mile and lets you know how fast you are going. I wish it also gave an average speed (haven't been able to find this). I also was hoping it would have date/time but it doesn't have that.I also needed it for when I start training for triathlons after my hike is over so I will be using the swim and bike functions.

                      Comments about Garmin Forerunner 910XT GPS Heart Rate Monitor:

                      Bought to train for my first triathlon. with heart rate monitor, it is a very effective training tool. Used it in my first triathlon... great race day feedback as you go. I would definitely recommend it for serious triathletes.
