About the Training Calendar
The training calendar on your device is an extension of
the training calendar or schedule you set up in Garmin
Connect. After you have added a few workouts to
the Garmin Connect calendar, you can send them to
your device. All scheduled workouts sent to the device
appear in the training calendar list by date. When you
select a day in the training calendar, you can view or
do the workout. The scheduled workout stays on your
device whether you complete it or skip it. When you
send scheduled workouts from Garmin Connect, they
overwrite the existing training calendar.
