Yes, was quite impressed with the data following a bike ride the other day. Liked the nerdy graphs and charts. Went to use it again yesterday though for a walk I did but couldn't get a GPS signal!? Have bitten the bullet and ordered it now though as found it for £83. Fingers crossed it helps me run again
Want to attempt to get back into running this year and have a marathon in mind for August 2014 (planning ahead). Really am starting again from the very beginning and very much need some motivation. Thought maybe treating myself to some new technology may help. Wanted to get some general advice/opinion first though before splashing out £100. Like the idea of the HRM linked colour coded pacing and workout planner but not sure I fully understand the technology. HELP!?!
Boing! Thought I'd show my face on here after months/years of non-running. Work will be a mega stress for a couple of years and taking so much of my time but I'm going to try and fit running in again. I know Tony A is up and at it again so hopefully, given time, there may be some more NLRISP.

Went to do the gate run in Sutton Park on Wednesday and its all gone hi-tec with elec gadgets strapped to the gates and you run with a electronic key that you slot into the plate,wait for it to flash then your off to the next gate so no short cuts or cheating.
Had to wait for two freight trains at the crossing which made me smile as you never see even one,just hear them and the stopping at each gate breaks your stride.Got round in 1:00:59 by chip time and just under an hour to the Garmin which i had stopped at the train crossing so not bad run overall.Went round this course a couple of years ago the old fashion way in just over 54 mins,must be getting old and fat but i have had a foot thing going on now for over six weeks but it does feel like its getting better.
Have a good run all, not been racing or out as much as i would have liked so not bumped into any of you lately, enjoy the rainy runs.
