Capturing Speed on T3C and T4C

Hi I am bit new to HR watches so bear with me.

I am interest in the T3C or T4C and wanted to know whether they will both display my speed continuously on the watch with a foot pod?

Also will the watch log the speeds and be able to graph them on my PC so for example ona 5 mile run I can see what my speed was at 10-15 sec intervals?

I also understand that the software with the T3C and T4C marginally differ. Would this be an issue as per my requirements above? Can both software export out to Excel?

Appreciate the help

I can only speed for the bike pod and a t4...but it does not record your pace in intervals. I only get an average speed. I think the t6c records intervals since it has the full blown training manager... but i have no idea...

Hi-
I have a t3 and assume that this goes for the t3c as well.
Speed is continuously displayed with the footpod in terms of km/hour (mph) or minutes/km (minutes/mile).

I don't get into the software thing, as the PC pod seems too expensive for my needs. So computer guys, help us out here.

To find out the speed of my intervals, I do the "autolap" function set at either 400 meters or however long my interval is. You can of course do this manually, but in a serious training session, pushing buttons is no fun.

After each interval, the time and average speed is displayed for a few seconds, so that you can immediately adjust your training appropriately.

Afterwards, it's easy to read the log and find out how fast each interval was, your ave heartrate, and max speed.

New tc series had improved all features

Now you have speed data in laps, autostart/stop with Pod's and of course the

Even you can lock buttons decide if you

just wondering if you purchased one of the watches? If so, how do you like it?
