Garmin Shares Sleep Insights On World Sleep Day
14 March 2025
Garmin is celebrating World Sleep Day with a look at all the ways Garmin smartwatches can help users appreciate how a good night’s sleep can enhance their well-being and performance, and we all know how important sleep is for runners. Insights from the Garmin Connect community show that over the last year Garmin users recorded an average sleep score of 72, up from an average score of 70 during the previous year. Thanks to Garmin smartwatches – that can track sleep patterns, naps, stress levels, heart rate and more – it’s easy to have a better understanding of the intricate interplay between sleep and overall well-being.
“My favorite Garmin sleep tracking feature is seeing my sleep summary with all the stages of sleep after I wake up, specifically how much deep sleep and REM I got. I know what is normal for me in these stages, so when I’m not getting enough deep or REM, I try to focus on what I can do during the day or before bed to help set me up for better quality sleep (i.e., make sure I’m fueling enough, less screen time, a good routine before bed, etc.). When I’m getting high quality sleep at night, then I’m able to get the full benefit of my training, which allows me to perform at my best every day.”
