Garmin Clipboard

Garmin Clipboard is our official Cross Country training platform. Athletes do not need to own a Garmin watch to use the platform or the apps. Athletes who do use a Garmin watch will have an easier time using the platform, which is why the team is loaning out Garmin watches to anyone who wants to have one. Watches will also be available to purchase at the discounted rate the team pays ($120). However, you are free to use your own smart watch as well, but runs will still need to be logged on Garmin Clipboard. Instructions can be found below. 

Step 1: Garmin Connect. All athletes will need to (1) Set up a Garmin Connect account and (2) Download the Garmin Connect app. The app and accounts are free.

Step 2: Garmin Clipboard. Download the Garmin Clipboard app. Connect this to the Garmin Connect account. Select “Join Organization” and use Team Code: ZP3126

Step 3: Select a Data Connection Method: 2 Options

Either:

• 1.) Garmin watch owners… simply auto-sync your watch with Garmin Connect. The apps will do everything else.

• 2.) Non-Garmin Smart-watch owners you can purchase RunGap app to bridge your smartwatch to Garmin Connect. This will work with an Apple Watch via Apple Health OR you can bridge this to Strava, COROS, or any other platform. 

  • • On RunGap, you'll need to purchase the SwagBag option, for either $5.99 for 3 months at a time, or $14.99 for the year. (Subscriptions DO NOT automatically renew so you don't need to worry about canceling)

    • Wherever you track your runs (Apple Health, Coros, etc...) will be the "Source" and Garmin will be the "Destination", so make sure to turn those settings on.
