GPS

Some Utilities for the Gadget #2

Information

My actual GPS tools are an Oregon 550 and the Forerunner 310XT from Garmin. The later is the best training tool available for runners (even if there are some 4xx and 6xx models available as well) because this watch gives all needed training informations about absolute and average speed during a run as well as covered distance etc. during the training.

Forerunner Training Center & 3D Viewer

Before being able to display your own sport tracks with the Forerunner program you need to compact the exported history from Garmins Training Center. Just drag and drop the history file to the Converter tool which also can be downloaded from below. Do get an impression, what the Forerunner program can do for you, some screenshots are available here...
