## Overview

The Garmin Forerunner 35 is a sleek, wrist-mounted GPS running watch designed for millennial professionals who want seamless biometric tracking without the fuss. Featuring built-in GPS, continuous wrist-based heart rate monitoring, and smart notifications, it offers a streamlined interface focused on running and walking. With up to 9 days of battery life and no need for additional accessories, it’s the perfect blend of lifestyle and fitness tech to keep you ahead of the pack.

## Description

The Forerunner 35 is Garmin's simple solution to gathering biometric training data during the simplest form of endurance training. It's built to be a stand-alone GPS running companion that handles everything from heart rate monitoring to route mapping with no phone or ancillary heart rate strap or footpod needed. Garmin assures us that you can "Just put on the Forerunner 35 and go"; however, since it's so unobtrusive and its benefits extend well beyond fitness training, chances are good you'll already have it on. Since that's the case, you can skip step one and proceed directly to "go." The Forerunner 35 dials down the functionality of some of Garmin's more expensive models, resulting in a simplified interface for tracking running and walking without the clutter of multisport features. It's something of a bridge between the vivofit and Forerunner lines, combining biometric and lifestyle data with the added oomph of GPS tracking and route mapping. Compared to the vivoactive, it sacrifices multisport functionality while adding the above-mentioned heart rate monitor. If you're primarily a pedestrian athlete, then the vivoactive's golf, swim, and cycling modes won't be missed. The heart rate monitor will prove invaluable, though, both during training sessions and your everyday life. While you're logging workouts, the Forerunner 35's GPS capabilities track distance and speed while mapping the route. While these features do extend to time in the saddle, the unit is designed primarily for running. The addition of Garmin Move IQ means the Forerunner 35 transitions seamlessly from running to walking while keeping a constant eye on steps taken. The optical, wrist-based heart rate monitor is a constant feature, though, and while it may not offer the precision of a trained medical professional constantly checking your pulse, it does keep you abreast of exertion levels including intensity minutes. This lets it manage interval training for you, letting you focus on exertion ...

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What advantage does the 235 have over the 35 to justify $100+ more?**
A: I am looking at these two watches as well.  I just went to my local running store today to talk to them about the 235 vs the 35 and they basically told me that they are the same watch except for thesefew differences.... the 235 has a color screen, longer battery life, and a few more running options like race pace estimating, V02 Max estimator, etc.  If you go to the Garmin site and do the compare feature you can get a pretty good look at the differences.  I also downloaded the manuals for both.  I'm going to go with the 35.  The extra features the 235 has are super nice but I don't think they are personally necessary for me.  I run 5K's, half-marathons, and full-marathons and the 35 looks like it will be sufficient for me.  Also, i'm a 34 year old female and the 234 looked HUGE on my wrist!

**Q: Would this fit a small woman's wrist?**
A: I have tiny wrists! The 235 face literally goes past the width of my wrist. The 35 is a nice fit. Bigger than what I'm use to wearing on my wrist in general but still looks good!

**Q: Is this watch waterproof?**
A: mine died today due to being fully submerged, bought it in oct of 2021. went to a small indoor waterpark and did one slide. came out of the pool and it started beeping at me. time had reset. and now it's just flickering on and off until i assume the battery dies. 

never really fully submerged this watch more than a couple dozen times if that. just disc golf in oregon. it was good while it lasted.

**Q: Does this track elevation gain during your run?**
A: Yes it does, it also tracks elevation gain while cycling
