atlasGO and Garmin, your ideal triathlon companions!

To me, Garmin has always stood as the top multi-sport hardware that one could get his/her hands on. As a triathlete, I’ve always wanted to switch to Garmin as my main tracking device, so when I got the chance through the atlasGO partnership, you can imagine how happy I was. I’ve had the pleasure of using the Garmin Vívoactive 3 for the past couple of months, and I can’t imagine doing a workout without it now. Whether it is for an interval session on the track, a pool swim, or a long bike ride in the Bay Area Headlands, it sits right there on my wrist.

Why Garmin and atlasGO?

The fact that Garmin and atlasGO are now compatible is amazing. I joined atlasGO, to begin with, because I knew that I was participating in a relatively egocentric sport, so if I could give back to the world through my training, that seemed like a win-win to me. Two years later, I am an ambassador and have had the chance to help promote atlasGO to my network for a while. The main concern was always, “but I don’t want to bring my phone, I only use my Garmin” well… that is no longer an issue. Additionally, competing in a triathlon, especially for some amateurs, can be a long affair. I remember my first Ironman took me 12hours 9minutes to complete. The battery life on the Vívoactive 3 allows me to bring it for the entire duration of such a day and will track from start to finish.
