Running Dynamics You can use your compatible fēnix device paired with the HRM-Pro accessory or other running dynamics accessory to provide real-time feedback about your running form. The running dynamics accessory has an accelerometer that measures torso movement in order to calculate six running metrics. For more information, go to garmin.com/performance-data/running. Cadence: Cadence is the number of steps per minute. It displays the total steps (right and left combined). Vertical oscillation: Vertical oscillation is your bounce while running. It displays the vertical motion of your torso, measured in centimeters. Ground contact time: Ground contact time is the amount of time in each step that you spend on the ground while running. It is measured in milliseconds. NOTE: Ground contact time and balance are not available while walking. Ground contact time balance: Ground contact time balance displays the left/right balance of your ground contact time while running. It displays a percentage. For example, 53.2 with an arrow pointing left or right. Stride length: Stride length is the length of your stride from one footfall to the next. It is measured in meters. Vertical ratio: Vertical ratio is the ratio of vertical oscillation to stride length. It displays a percentage. A lower number typically indicates better running form. Training with Running Dynamics Before you can view running dynamics, you must put on a running dynamics accessory, such as the HRM-Pro accessory, and pair it with your device (Pairing Your Wireless Sensors, page 82). 1 Hold MENU. 2 Select Activities & Apps. 3 Select an activity. 4 Select the activity settings. 5 Select Data Screens > Add New. 6 Select a running dynamics data screen. NOTE: The running dynamics screens are not available for all activities. 7 Go for a run (Starting an Activity, page 5). 8 Select UP or DOWN to open a running dynamics screen to view your metrics. Tips for Missing Running Dynamics Data If running dynamics data does not appear, you can try these tips. • Make sure you have a running dynamics accessory, such as the HRM-Pro accessory. Accessories with running dynamics have on the front of the module. • Pair the running dynamics accessory with your watch again, according to the instructions. • If you are using the HRM-Pro accessory, pair it with your watch using ANT+ technology, rather than Bluetooth technology. • If the running dynamics data display shows only zeros, make sure the accessory is worn right-side up. NOTE: Ground contact time and balance appears only while running. It is not calculated while walking. Sensors and Accessories 83

accessory to provide real-time feedback about your running form.
The running dynamics accessory has an accelerometer that measures torso movement in order to calculate six
running metrics. For more information, go to

.
Cadence
: Cadence is the number of steps per minute. It displays the total steps (right and left combined).
Vertical oscillation
: Vertical oscillation is your bounce while running. It displays the vertical motion of your
torso, measured in centimeters.
Ground contact time
: Ground contact time is the amount of time in each step that you spend on the ground
while running. It is measured in milliseconds.
NOTE:
Ground contact time and balance are not available while walking.
Ground contact time balance
: Ground contact time balance displays the left/right balance of your ground
contact time while running. It displays a percentage. For example, 53.2 with an arrow pointing left or right.
Stride length
: Stride length is the length of your stride from one footfall to the next. It is measured in meters.
Vertical ratio
: Vertical ratio is the ratio of vertical oscillation to stride length. It displays a percentage. A lower
number typically indicates better running form.

Tips for Missing Running Dynamics Data
If running dynamics data does not appear, you can try these tips.
•
Make sure you have a running dynamics accessory, such as the HRM-Pro accessory.
Accessories with running dynamics have
on the front of the module.
•
Pair the running dynamics accessory with your watch again, according to the instructions.
