Ever finished a ride or run and wished you could hit replay? Well, now you can. Garmin Connect — our online community for storing, analyzing and sharing activities recorded with your Garmin device — just added a map player function yesterday. This interactive feature lets you replay your activity, view it on street, topo or hybrid maps and see your stats at any point, including time, distance, speed, elevation and heart rate. Fans of our former data analysis site, MotionBased, have used and loved map player. The version on Garmin Connect has even more features to crave, including a luscious full-screen view. Check it out. The site is now compatible with Forerunner 405 and 50 (both featuring wireless data uploads) and Edge 705 and 605. We’ll keep you posted on more enhancements to the site in the coming months, including compatibility with additional Garmin devices.

Hey, great function. I have 1 request for the future: would it be possible to enhance this to play & compare 2 or more runs simultaneously? This would make it even better. Thanks again

Hey, this is great!!! You got the Player function up and running on Garmin Connect! That was the best feature of motion based and I'm so happy to see it now on Garmin Connect--almost made me go back to my 305 when I discovered I'd lost that feature with my new 405. Keep up the great work!
