VO2 Estimation/Trail Running/ Beach Running

Former Member over 4 years ago

I have read the online manual for the 245 but couldn't find what I wanted to know - Does this watch have a sport profile for off road running? Can I have profile for running on the soft sand or orienteering that doesn't wreck my VO2 figures? Or do I need to step up in the range to a 645 or higher to get what I need?

Appreciate any advice, thanks!

According to specs, the FR245 does have a "Trail Run" profile.

Thanks for that. You're right it is in the specs.

But I'm sure whilst in trail profile it doesn't affect your vo2. I often do trails and afterwards my vo2 is the same as before, and that's taking it easy.
