Interval Timer Mode
Interval Timer Mode offers a flexible six-interval countdown timer,
and can retain settings for up to five different training sessions. It
includes warm up and cool down intervals and four training
intervals for each training session. You can set the group of four
training intervals to repeat up to 99 times. You can set the warm-
up interval to run one time at the beginning of your training
session and the cool down interval to run one time at the end of
your training session.
Interval Mode terminology
Interval Training:
You can use interval training to help you vary
the intensity level within one workout, ultimately helping you
work out longer and harder.

The Watch stores average heart rate statistics for each lap if you
use the HR Sensor with the Watch.
If you use the Watch with the HR Sensor you can set it to
automatically begin taking a heart rate recovery calculation each
time you press 
STOP/RESET
to stop the chronograph. However,
if you press 
START/SPLIT
again before the recovery cycle has
completed, you will cancel the recovery. For more information,
refer to Configure Mode on page 40.
Chronograph Mode example
Recently you heard that a training method for long distance
runners called the run/walk method can help you increase your
overall endurance and burn more calories. This method calls for
running for a period of time followed by a short period of walking.
You decide to use Chronograph Mode to help you try this method.
You press 
START/SPLIT
to begin your run and then after 10
minutes of running you press 
START/SPLIT
again and walk for 2
minutes. You continue using these two timing sequences until you
have completed a 60 minute run/walk.
