I seem to be stuck on 25 mins for a 5k run so what I need to know is, Can I use my Runner 3 watch as help to get a faster time using different pacings and negative splits? Is there also a voice help to tell me if I need to slow down or quicken the pace please?
Thanks
Chris.

You can use voice coaching to help you pace better. Voice coaching is only available in specific training modes, not in general across the watch. You will get the following prompts:
General prompts: Watch ready, Demo mode, Bluetooth not working when swimming.
Training Partner prompts:
Zone: in zone, above zone, below zone.
Goal: at 50%, 90% 100% and 110% of goal.
Race: ahead, behind, lost, won.
Unless you are in Zone, Goal or Race you will not get any prompts. In lap mode it will buzz to inform you of a completed lap and show the lap time on the watch but there are no audio prompts for it.
