Combining GPS location data with heart rate monitoring, the Timex Ironman Trail Runner (model T5J985) is a great choice for serious and professional runners, providing latitude and longitude, altitude/elevation data, exact real-time/average/maximum speed, and pace calculation. It offers a stylish silver watch face accented with bright yellow, dark gray resin band with buckle closure, chest-strap heart rate monitor, and lightweight GPS receiver.

Location features include the ability to record up to 10 waypoints, on-the-move compass directional heading, and a Track Back function to navigate you back to a selected waypoint. Speed and Distance features include tracking of your workout distance (with target distance alerts), continuous odometer for total distance for a workout or group of workouts, and a predictive finish time mode that uses total event distance and pace data. The heart rate monitor features include:

  • Target Zones: Preset your desired heart rate exercise zone. Alarm notification when you are not in zone.
  • Average Heart Rate: Displays your average heart rate over a period of time.
  • Time In Zone: Amount of time spent within your selected heart rate target zone.
  • Recovery Heart Rate Timer: Measure your heart rate after a timed recovery.
  • Max Heart Rate Zone Calculation: Automatically sets your five training zones; one manual zone.
  • Digital Transmission: Timex’s system protects your data from other heart rate monitors and most exercise equipment.

This watch also provides:

  • 3-line customizable display
  • Summary Mode: review navigational, speed, distance and heart rate performance data at end of workout
  • 100-hour chronograph with either lap/split in large digits,

The Indiglo night-light uniformly lights the surface of the watch dial using patented blue electroluminescent lighting technology. It uses less battery power than most other watch illumination systems, enabling your watch battery to last longer. The Night Mode feature allows you to illuminate the Indiglo night-light for 3 seconds with any button press, regardless of the mode or function. The watch is water resistant to 50 meters (165 feet)–suitable for swimming but not for diving–and the GPS sensor is splash resistant. All Timex heart rate monitor sensors have batteries that can be replaced by consumers without requiring them to be returned to the manufacturer.

Timex Ironman T5J985 Has Been Fantastic by Greg
This is my first HRM (let alone personal GPS system). After a few run throughs with the manual, I was quickly using the watch at the gym to track my HR Zones. With regards to heart monitoring, the watch is very easy to use and easy to read. I have had no issues.

One interesting note is that I have been using the watch during my weight-training portions of my workouts as well my cardio. It has been interesting to see which exercises have greater affect on my heart rate than others.

Also, I have recently been exploring the GPS aspect and after the initial linking of the GPS to the watch (which took about 2 minutes), there haven’t been any issues. It appears very accurate, as I have mapped out various road runs with the car and come up with similar distances traveled on the Timex. I look forward to hitting some trails soon.

Timex BodyLink Trail Runner by Carla Crosby
Timex IRONMAN Triathlon Bodylink Trail Runner Watch T5J985

Great watch! I upgraded from the previous generation Timex BodyLink and have to say I LOVE this watch. I love all the features, like the waypoints and the altitude information. The GPS transmitter is smaller than the previous generation’s model and easier to wear on my arm.
