About the Training Calendar

The training calendar on your watch is an extension of the
training calendar or schedule you set up in your Garmin
Connect account. After you have added a few workouts to
the Garmin Connect calendar, you can send them to your
device. All scheduled workouts sent to the device appear
in the calendar glance. When you select a day in the
calendar, you can view or do the workout. The scheduled
workout stays on your watch whether you complete it or
skip it. When you send scheduled workouts from Garmin
Connect, they overwrite the existing training calendar.

Using Garmin Connect Training Plans

Before you can download and use a training plan, you
must have a Garmin Connect account

compatible phone.

2 Select Training > Training Plans.
3 Select and schedule a training plan.
4 Follow the on-screen instructions.
5 Review the training plan in your calendar.
Adaptive Training Plans
Your Garmin Connect account has an adaptive training
plan and Garmin coach to fit your training goals. For
example, you can answer a few questions and find a
plan to help you complete a 5 km race. The plan adjusts
to your current level of fitness, coaching and schedule
preferences, and race date. When you start a plan, the
Garmin coach glance is added to the glance loop on your
D2 Mach 1 watch.

PacePro Training

Many runners like to wear a pace band during a race to
help achieve their race goal. The PacePro feature allows
you to create a custom pace band based on distance and
pace or distance and time. You can also create a pace
band for a known course to optimize your pace effort
based on elevation changes.
You can create a PacePro plan using the Garmin Connect
app. You can preview the splits and elevation plot before
