Lunchtime run.

Was probably around 6:30 pace today. I wore my new shades and am happy with my purchase.

3 reasons I like them

-They protect my eyes

-They are cool

-The unkind souls that jokingly swerve at runners will no longer have the pleasure of seeing the fear in my eyes

Hitting the track tomorrow night if its clear of snow (which I assume it will be) - 1600, 4x4, 1600, 4x2, 1600

Highland or Olympus?

Not sure yet - probably Olympus though. I think it gets more sunlight and should have melted out pretty good today.

Olympus! Great name.

I went to the muy 28 blogspot site. I think that girl loves you.

Doing well with your running it looks like.

By the way, although you are not a huge 305 fan, one option would be to return the watch to Garmin for a refurbished 305...cost: $79.00. I may do that.

The 110 and 210 reviews have people being not happy with the clamp (versus) cradle for uploading and charging purposes.

Hope all going well.

That's another good point PRE - w/ the 110, you can't even review your splits unless you plug it into your laptop.

Thanks PRE you've always got kind words. Jing will be happy that you checked out her blog!

I've seen some of the same reviews that you've mentioned and am still unsure what I'll do. I may try to refurbish the 305 like you mentioned or take a gamble on the 110. Jake seems to enjoy his quite a bit.
