Fun!
July 27, 2004 – 8:27 amDid 3.02 miles (check the precision, w00t!) this morning - I think I’m going to like the Garmin, though I can tell it’ll take a little getting used to. I got a few “weak GPS signal” notices at the start of the run, but by the end everything was fine. If people are interested, I’ll do a writeup on it in a week or so - something along the lines of my Running with the iPod post.

I’d love to hear all about it!! I’m a distance/pace junkie and really want to get one, but I’m afraid to make that investment without hearing some good things about the GPS signals!

I only rarely get those weak signal messages, but I do get them, usually in very wooded areas around the lake where I do my long miles. I hope yours works out because I really love my Garmin. I’ve become so addicted to it, but really it gives me a lot of freedom. I like to know at a minimum how far I’m going (and I don’t think that’s unreasonable) but instead of having to find a marked trail or a track I can just walk where I want and let Garmin track it.
Good luck!
