NOTE: The HRM-Run accessory is compatible with several
ANT+ fitness products and can display heart rate data when
paired. The running dynamics features are available only on
some Garmin devices.
Cadence: Cadence is the number of steps per minute. It
displays total steps (right and left combined).
Vertical oscillation: Vertical oscillation is your bounce while
running. It displays the vertical motion of your torso,
measured in centimeters for each step.
Ground contact time: Ground contact time is the amount of
time in each step that you spend on the ground while
running. It is measured in milliseconds.
NOTE: Ground contact time is not available while walking.
Training with Running Dynamics
Before you can view running dynamics, you must put on the
HRM-Run accessory and pair it with your device (Pairing ANT+
Sensors). If your epix was packaged with the HRM-Run
accessory, the devices are already paired, and the epix is set to
display running dynamics.

Select an option:
If your HRM-Run accessory and epix device are already
paired, skip to step 8.
If your HRM-Run accessory and epix device are not
already paired, complete all the steps in this procedure.

Color Gauges and Running Dynamics Data
The running dynamics screen displays a color gauge for the primary metric. You can display cadence, vertical oscillation, or ground
contact time as the primary metric. The color gauge shows you how your running dynamics data compares to those of other
runners. The color zones are based on percentiles.
Garmin has researched many runners of all different levels. The data values in the red or orange zones are typical for less
experienced or slower runners. The data values in the green, blue, or purple zones are typical for more experienced or faster
runners. Less experienced runners tend to exhibit longer ground contact times, higher vertical oscillation, and lower cadence than
more experienced runners. However, taller runners typically have slightly slower cadences and slightly higher vertical oscillation. Go
to www.garmin.com for more information on running dynamics. For additional theories and interpretations of running dynamics data,
you can search reputable running publications and websites.
Color Zone Percentile in Zone Cadence Range Vertical Oscillation Range Ground Contact Time Range
Purple >95 >185 spm <6.7 cm <208 ms
Blue 70–95 174–185 spm 6.7–8.3 cm 208–240 ms
Green 30–69 163–173 spm 8.4–10.0 cm 241–272 ms
Orange 5–29 151–162 spm 10.1–11.8 cm 273–305 ms
Red <5 <151 spm >11.8 cm >305 ms
Tips for Missing Running Dynamics Data
If running dynamics data does not appear, you can try these
tips.
Make sure you have the HRM-Run accessory.
The HRM-Run accessory has on the front of the module.
Pair the HRM-Run accessory with your epix again, according
to the instructions.
If the running dynamics data display zeros, make sure the
HRM-Run module is worn right-side up.
NOTE: Ground contact time appears only while running. It
cannot be calculated while walking.
About VO2 Max. Estimates
VO2 max. is the maximum volume of oxygen (in milliliters) you
can consume per minute per kilogram of body weight at your
maximum performance. In simple terms, VO2 max. is an
indication of athletic performance and should increase as your
level of fitness improves. VO2 max. estimates are provided and
supported by Firstbeat
®
Technologies Ltd. The epix device has
separate VO2 max. estimates for running and cycling. You can
use your Garmin device paired with a compatible heart rate
monitor and power meter to display your cycling VO2 max.
