The i-Run team says

Whether for your regular running sessions or your new sporting challenges, the Garmin Forerunner 255 Music watch is a true tool for progress. Its sophisticated design allows you to achieve your most demanding goals.

Equipped with the Elevate Gen 4 heart rate sensor and the Pulse Ox 2.0 pulse oximeter, it records valuable data on your fitness state. Thanks to this information, it offers you training recommendations and health summaries as soon as you wake up.

Several sports profiles are available to make the most of your activities. A swimming mode in pool and open water provides you with the necessary elements to excel in these disciplines.

To improve your performance, an analysis is conducted to optimize your recovery after exertion. The Garmin Connect app gives you access to the organization and creation of workout sessions considering your level and goals.

With constant calculation, the multi-band GPS pinpoints your position with great accuracy even in challenging locations. The barometric altimeter enhances your experience during your outdoor outings.

Ideal for self-care, it incorporates the Fitness Age 2.0 algorithm and the HRV test. The latter evaluates the time interval between two heartbeats to measure your physical condition and stress level.

Keep your motivation at its peak by listening to your favorite tracks directly stored on your watch. Connect your Spotify or Deezer account and control your playlists during your activities.

Available in two sizes, the color screen ensures a pleasant use and great shock resistance. Redesigned for better autonomy, it follows you for 30 hours in GPS mode and up to fourteen days in connected mode.

    2. Ground Contact Time Balance: Measure your balance during ground contact to determine if your run is symmetrical.
    3. Vertical Ratio: Observe the effort required to move towards your destination. A low score indicates low energy expenditure or low bounce for a high stride length.

  • Body Battery

    Optimize your body's energy reserves by using heart rate variability, stress, sleep, and other data to assess your fitness level or when you should rest.

  • Pulse Ox

    Pulse measurement, a pulse oximeter measures the amount of oxygen (relative to the maximum capacity) in the blood as it moves through your body.

  • LiveTrack

    Incident detection and assistance request functions.

  • Race Predictor Trend

    The Race Predictor function displays, on a graph, the evolution of race time predictions over the long term, allowing you to better track the development of your capabilities and performance.

  • GNSS Multi-bandes

    This unique new feature from Garmin is a technological achievement, delivering unparalleled GPS location accuracy. Thanks to the constant recalibration of position by the watch on both frequencies of each multi-band compatible GNSS network, this technology effectively identifies and eliminates erroneous positioning data, thereby offering much higher accuracy, especially in canyons, cities, and challenging alpine environments.

  • Elevate

    The wrist-based optical heart rate monitor of Garmin smartwatches is a useful tool that enables the user to obtain precise heart rate estimates at any time. The optical heart rate monitor is designed to monitor the user's heart rate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

  • Suivi menstruel et grossesse 2.0

    Allows you to track menstrual cycles and display cycle details as well as other statistics on Garmin Connect.

  • Fitness Age 2.0

  • Suivi de respiration 2.0

    Enables the consultation of respiration data throughout the day, during sleep, and during yoga and breathing activities.

  • Test HRV/VFC

    Heart rate variability is the variation in the time interval between two heartbeats. The level of HRV varies greatly among individuals, but in general, a high HRV is considered a marker of good physical fitness and health, while a low HRV is associated with negative health effects and a high level of stress.
