Product Description
Foot Pod, provides speed, distance, pace (indoor use only)

Amazon.com Product Description
The Garmin Forerunner 305 is a vital training tool for runners and other outdoor athletes. But its speed and distance calculations rely on a a GPS signal from the skies above, leaving those who want to run or train indoors, well, out in the cold.

The Foot Pod uses a tiny ANT Sport transmitter to communicate with the Forerunner 305.

Garmin has solved this problem with the innovative Forerunner 305 Foot Pod. This shoe-mounted accessory will provide accurate pace and distance to the Forerunner 305 when GPS reception is unavailable, such as when you're training on treadmills or indoor tracks. Speed and distance information is calculated in the Foot Pod and transferred to the Forerunner, where information from the Foot Pod is automatically displayed and stored.

Dynastream Technology
The Foot Pod is built on Dynastream technology, which solves the challenge of accurately measuring a user's speed and distance in real time. The system was designed to measure each stride via a patented accelerometer, which measures all parameters of each foot stride, computes that data, then wirelessly transmits speed and distance information to the Forerunner 305 wrist unit via a 2.4 GHz signal. To date, Dynastream technology is the first and only commercially viable, accurate stride analysis technology that can be used outside the laboratory environment.

Simple to Use

Dynastream technology accurately measures your stride--whether you're walking, running, or sprinting--using a patented accelerometer.

Once the Foot Pod is turned on, the Forerunner 305 recognizes its wireless signal and asks if you wish to train using the Foot Pod instead of with the Forerunner's built-in GPS. Once confirmed, the Forerunner 305 deactivates the GPS and the Foot Pod begins measuring the workout. The Foot Pod communicates to the wrist unit using Dynastream's ANT Sport wireless technology, a commonly available platform for connectivity and interoperability between sports accessories and equipment. The unit features a simple and secure lace-mounted attachment, and runs on a single AAA battery that offers 70 hours of typical use. The Foot Pod is 97 percent accurate out of the box and 99 accurate percent when calibrated. It can also be worn in tandem with the Forerunner 305's wireless heart rate monitor.

Note: The Forerunner 305 needs to be updated to software version 2.5 before it will be compatible with the Foot Pod. You can download the software update at garmin.com/support.

Works good, needs batteries often and a pain to install November 11, 2008
Often is not exactly how I would put it. How about, "More often than I would have thought". I need to change about once every 4 months. The battery issue is much less annoying than the fact that I have to unlace my shoes to "install" and "uninstall" the foot pod. This is a pain anytime that I want to use a different pair of shoes on the treadmill. The unit is also quite big for what it is, which is less annoying than I would have first thought. The weight has not been an issue, and I hardly even notice it is there while I am running. Overall, just an acceptable design.

easy to use just wish it clipped on September 14, 2008
Easy to use. Paired fast, no problem calibrating, very accurate. You have to lace it on and only way to remove it from your shoe is to unlace your shoe. Would be nice if it had a base that laced on and then the pod clipped on. However, the fot pod is so light you don't notice it there.

Expense bandaid for bad software and website July 28, 2008

I own the Garmin 405 with HRM. It is beyond me why anyone would be happy with buying a foot pod. The correct answer is for Garmin to allow manual entries and the editing of data on Garmin Connect and Training Center. This deficiency means that if you are running, biking, or working out indoors you are forced to pay $100 to log your workout.

Oh - and if you complete an "indoor cardio" workout like biking that doesn't involve any impact then the foot pod will not work and you still can not log your workout.

The 405 is a solid product, the Garmin Connect and Training Center are buggy and deficient, and the foot pod is a complete rip off. Open a Garmin Connect account for yourself and prepare to be underwhelmed.

Great product July 9, 2008
Looking for a great way to accurately track your workouts indoors? This will fit your need. I have an older treadmill at home and is not accurate, the foot pod accurately tracks my mileage and pace. You can also upload your workouts to your Garmin Training Center software on your computer. I did not calibrate mine and it's within a .05 of a mile on the treadmills at the gym, so it's pretty accurate already. Of course if you want to be precise follow the directions to calibrate it. The only drawback to the foot pod is that it isn't easily removed from your show due to having to run your laces through them. Maybe future models will have an easier way to attach and detach the foot pod. That's the only negative. I am very pleased with my purchase and works automatically with my Forerunner 305.
