Even the most dedicated athletes know it can be difficult to stay fit and in shape while traveling. From hotels without gyms and facilities under renovation to poor weather situations and lack of accessible terrain, you can’t always control the fitness conditions of a destination.
Fortunately, the Forerunner 220 from Garmin is a step in the right direction for travelers looking to stay healthy on the go. When used with the heart rate strap, this watch accurately tracks distance, pace and heart rate, making it easy to stay focused on the workout instead of trying to remember all the stats. Unlike most fitness watches that can only calculate distance through a GPS (i.e. running outdoors), the Forerunner 220 has a built in accelerometer that keeps track of workouts on treadmills or other indoor machines, no additional foot pod needed.
The 220’s connected features are ideal for travelers; particularly the live tracking features that allow friends and family to follow along and see workout stats in real time. This not only keeps travelers in touch with people, but offers a great safety net for those who run alone. Its stylish design featuring a high-resolution color display is great for everyday wear as well. Purchase the watch online or at select retailers for $249.99, or $299.99 with the heart rate monitor.
