When we run a race, we can run faster than we can in practice.  The mental aspect of a race is helpful to keep us going. So, what if we could race someone on our off days?  Turns out, you can. Virtual Race Game is just like it sounds. It’s a race between the blue dot and the red dot. You (the blue dot) must not let the red dot (computer) virtually lap you.  Set your pace in the settings part of the Garmin app for a customized race. Have fun, and good luck!

Rules: 
You get a head start on the computer.  Customize this head start in the Garmin Connect App. 
After the head start, the computer will start chasing you at a defined pace (you can change this in the Garmin Connect app as well). 
Don’t let the computer lap you!
Just like a real track, one lap around the virtual track is equivalent to a quarter of a mile. 

NOTE: You don’t have to be running on a track for this to work, and even if you are, the dot may be going an opposite way than you.  The dot always goes counter clockwise.

How to set up: 

1. Open any activity that you would like to race someone on. 
2. Select settings, or open the menu.
