Fenix 2 provides a comprehensive feature set for runners with pace, time, distance, interval training options, autolap and many more .

All available profiles can be fully customised to suit the personal needs of the athletes.

The Fenix 2 supports multisport athletes in all their disciplines and training environments. During open water and indoor swimming, the Fenix 2 tracks stroke count, intervals, distance, pace and more. During cycling the Fenix 2 provides detailed information on your performance and tracks cadence and power from optional sensors to complete your performance metrics.

Fenix 2 is packed with cutting edge training features from Garmin, when used with a HRM-Run monitor it can give you stats about your form and fitness. The first is VO2 Max which gives you an estimation of your actual fitness based on your performance and various values of your heart rate. Track changes to your VO2 max to see your fitness gains and to compare with your peers. The Fenix 2 is even able to make a prediction on your race time based on your VO2 Max value. After your training the recovery advisor tells you how much time you need to recover from your last activity.

Fenix 2 incorporates sophisticated sensor feedback on your running form to provide multiple advanced running metrics. When used with the HRM-Run monitor¹, Fenix 2 reports your cadence, vertical oscillation and ground contact time. These metrics are called running dynamics, and they show your running efficiency. Knowing about your running dynamics can help you to improve your efficiency over time.

Fenix 2 tracks your skiing and snowboarding performance the smart way. It automatically counts your runs and detects speed, distance and vertical drop so you get separate data for individual run statistics. Once you get onto the ski lift and up the mountain it presents you with the data from your last run so you can compare your actual data with former runs or your days performance. With the included fabric wrist strap you can even wear your Fenix 2 over your jacket. Fenix 2 also has a dedicated cross country skiing mode and you can use your Fenix 2 as a glove-friendly remote for the VIRB™ and VIRB™ Elite action cameras.
