This is a unique feature of the Forerunner 101. You have the option to set up a Virtual 

Partner to help you obtain your workout goals. The Virtual Partner always completes the 
goal you set. Your job is to keep up with your Virtual Partner. Your Virtual Partner can help 
you with ‘Distance & Time’, ‘Time & Pace(Speed)’, or ‘Distance & Pace(Speed)’. The Virtual 
Partner mode displays after you enter your settings. In the Virtual Partner mode, the top 
character is your Virtual Partner while you are represented on the bottom. As soon as you 
press START, your workout begins and your Virtual Partner begins to run. As you move, 
your digital self also moves. A message bar appears at the very bottom and shows how far 
off you are from your Virtual Partner. Press the DOWN or UP button to view other data in 
Virtual Partner Mode, such as distance and time to go. Press STOP to stop the timer after 
your goals are complete or select ‘END PARTNER RUN’ from the Training Assistant menu and 
a summary screen displays.
