Product details
Stay motivated and track your fitness goals with ease using the Garmin Forerunner 265 Music Smartwatch. This sleek and lightweight device is designed to keep you informed and engaged throughout your training, whether you're preparing for a marathon or just staying active.
Stay informed
Start your day right with a morning report that gives you a quick overview of your sleep, recovery and training outlook. The Forerunner 265 also provides HRV status and training readiness, helping you plan your day effectively. With this data, you can make informed decisions about your workouts and overall health.
Plan your race strategy
Prepare for race day with personalised daily suggested workouts based on the race and course you input into the Garmin Connect app. View the race widget on your watch to stay on track, and the daily suggested workouts adapt after every run to match your performance and recovery. This ensures you're always training at your best level.
Understand your training readiness
Know when to push harder or take it easy with the training readiness score. This score is calculated based on your sleep quality, recovery advisor, training load and HRV status, giving you a clear indication of how primed you are for your next workout. It helps you maximise the benefits of each training session.
Track a wide range of activities
The Forerunner 265 comes with over 30 built-in activity profiles, including running, triathlon, cycling and open-water swimming. This means you can track a variety of workouts and get accurate data for each one, helping you stay versatile in your fitness routine.
Stay safe and connected
In case of an incident during your outdoor activities, the Forerunner 265 can detect it and send a message with your live location to emergency contacts. This feature requires setup and your smartphone to be in an area with network coverage. It provides you with an added layer of safety and peace of mind.
Enjoy music on the go
Listen to your favourite songs and playlists without your phone. Download songs directly to your Forerunner 265, including playlists from Spotify, Amazon Music, or Deezer and connect with wireless headphones for uninterrupted, phone-free listening.
