30+ activity profiles ensure the Forerunner® 265S can adapt to any training regime, including a dedicated triathlon feature that combines dedicated profiles for running, swimming and cycling. It helps to plan your strategy with daily suggested workouts and syncs up with Garmin IQ, Garmin Connect and other platforms like Strava and Komoot so you can input your pre-planned routes or access routes from other members of the running community.

Advanced running metrics go into more detail than other smartwatches to provide the ultimate training assistance, while helpful features like Garmin Pay™ contactless payments and smartphone notifications means the watch can provide assistance in everyday life too.
