l The V800 also shows the bearing and the direct distance (beeline) between you and the starting point.
When in unfamiliar surroundings, always keep a map at hand in case the V800 loses the satellite signal or
the battery runs out.
ROUTE GUIDANCE
The route guidance feature guides you along routes that you have recorded in previous sessions or routes that
other Flow web service users have recorded and shared.
When you start a route guidance session, your V800 guides you directly to the starting point of the route with
an arrow as in the back to start feature. You must first go to starting point of your route in order for the
guidance to start. When the starting point has been reached, your V800 guides you all the way through the
route to the end. Guidance on the display keeps you on the right track during your session.

Adding a Route to V800
To add a route to your V800, you must save it as a favorite in the Flow web service Explore view or in the
analysis view of your training session, and sync it to your V800.

RACE PACE
Race pace feature helps you to keep a steady pace and achieve your target time for a set distance. Define a
target time for the distance, for example, 45 minutes for a 10 kilometer run. During the training session the
target pace/speed is compared with training information. You can follow up on how far behind or ahead you
are, compared to your pre-set target. You can also check what is the required steady pace/speed in order to
meet your set target. Race pace can be set on V800, or you can also set a race pace target in the Flow web
service.
