  • RUNNING POWER: Get a continuous measurement on your wrist of how much power you’re applying to the road as you run when using a Running Dynamics Pod or HRM-Pro™ monitor.
  • REAL-TIME STAMINA: Use this data to track and manage your exertion — and help avoid overexerting at the start of your run or bike ride.
  • RUNNING DYNAMICS: When using a Running Dynamics Pod or HRM-Pro monitor, the Forerunner 955 watch measures crucial running metrics such as cadence, stride length, ground contact time and balance, and more.

  • PERFORMANCE CONDITION: While you run, get an analysis of your pace, heart rate and heart rate variability for a real-time assessment of your current ability to perform.

  • MULTI-BAND SUPPORT: Access multiple global navigation satellite systems, and get access to multiple frequencies sent by navigation satellites for improved accuracy in areas where GNSS signals are reflected, weak or typically don't penetrate — giving you superior accuracy for how far and how fast you’ve run — even in challenging environments.
  • FULL-COLOR MAPPING: Whether you’re running on city streets or riding densely covered trails, Forerunner 955 provides full-color, built-in mapping to keep you on track.
  • TURN-BY-TURN NAVIGATION: Follow a course with help from turn-by-turn directions, which let you know ahead of time when the next turn is coming.
