Looking for device that will not only set interval times but also track overall distance and average speed. Will this device perform all functions?

This does not do that this is strictly an interval timer that you set for a specific length of time. You might want to consider the Garmin watches that track using GPS. There is a great comparison on a website by DCRainmaker. You can Google him.

No. This is a great interval timer, but it does not track distance or average speed.

Yes it always updates speed readings quickly even at WOT but I haven't checked it against another gps for accuracy.

Yes, this can be done in the setup under units. Go the Garmin.com and under support you can look at the manual for any device you want to research.

I think it would work to calculate your distance on the soccer field. It is good at keeping track of distance and time and pace. You probably don't care about pace, but if it connects to satellite, it will tell distance!!

I have never used it for bicycling, only running, but it should be able to compute speed and distance travelled regardless of whether you are running or on a bike.

No. Not really. It records lat/long with time. But, the accuracy of all consumer GPS units is 50 feet. So, if you sit in one place for 15 minutes then any GPS unit will show you moving around that spot at incredible speeds. It could show you 50 feet to the left one second and 50 feet to the right the next. Computer software can smooth that out and give you a general overall speed.

I just used the GPS on a long road trip. It was very fast and seemed to stay up with quick turns and tunnels and overpasses. It did not keep track of starting mileage and other information which allowed you to calculate gas mileage, parked time, etc. It only reports time to destination in hour and minutes, and the mileage remaining.

I'm afraid it doesn't. It is an exercises device, not a going out info. It records your traject, speed, heights and other data like that. Good luck

You can have it show speed (mph) instead of pace (min/lap distance). There's an option in the setup menu.

Yes, it does. You may use the Virtual Partner to set a specific pace in order to compare your current pace versus your target pace.Keep in mind that this unit is not produced anymore by Garmin but when I looked up the newer models around the same price range, I noticed the newer ones do not have alerts (pace, heart rate, etc).

I don't believe it's meant to be used for tracking a whole day's calories, only because you tell it when to start and then you have to hold the button down for it to take your heart rate and update. I stopped using it not long after I bought it. The batteries don't last long, which means it doesn't track correctly at times and loses the info.

As far as I know, it has lap time, overall time, transition time (triathlon), and I think it could give you time per activity (running, bike, swimming). What is that you want to measure?
1080848
Absolutely not. This only tracks your mileage that your run. I has no map etc.

Your question doesn't seem clear. What are you asking? For me, the Cyclocomputer does everything that I've programmed it to do. I haven't tried the heart rate monitoring and I don't care much about the altitude measurements. Laps aren't important to me either. I'm focused on the time, distance, cadence, average and maximum speeds. It's working fine.

Yes, When you download your run data to your computer you will get a GPS map and the path you ran super imposed on in. At the bottom is a graph that will track pace, altitude, speed, and distance. It is my first GPS watch but I have been very pleased. No complaints.
1359815
Both! It tracks running really well in my experience, but the GPS is really good and I wouldn't know why the speed of the movement would matter.
2079362
Yes it does. It tracks duration, distance, avg.pace, avg. speed, max speed, and calories.
