Garmin Forerunner 245 Music Running Watch

You do the running. Forerunner 245 Music does the thinking. This GPS running smartwatch evaluates performance stats such as VO2 max, aerobic and anaerobic training effects, and training status, which indicates if you’re undertraining or overdoing it. You can also track advanced running dynamics6 such as ground contact time balance and stride length. Store up to 500 songs right on your watch for phone-free listening, and even sync your favourite music from select streaming services.

Your Music, Your Motivation

Take your tunes to go, and leave your phone behind. Store up to 500 of your favourite songs — and even playlists from your streaming services such as Deezer, Spotify® and more — right on your watch so you can listen with headphones equipped with Bluetooth® wireless technology while you run.

Advanced Running Dynamics and Performance Monitoring

Perfect your running form with detailed running dynamics such as ground contact time balance, stride length, vertical ratio and more. The watch also evaluates your training and recovery, bringing you metrics such as training status and more.

Advanced Workouts

Work out your way by downloading free workouts or creating your own custom ones on the Garmin Connect™ online fitness community. Or if you’ve got a goal in mind for your next 5K, the Garmin Coach feature lets you select from free training plans that adapt to your goals and provide expert coaching every step of the way.

Connect IQ Apps

Personalise your watch with free watch faces, widgets and apps from our Connect IQ store so you can know when your Uber is arriving, turn on the lights with the SmartThings app and more.

Heightened Awareness

It’s easy to get a little extra peace of mind for you and your loved ones. Forerunner 245 Music has new safety and tracking features that let you share your live location with chosen contacts — manually or automatically with built-in incident detection, if needed.
