AM - ran 5 easy miles with Lybi. The community where my parents live is totally rolling hills everywhere - hardly any of the run was flat. Lybi and I made a deal on the run - she hung on to the back of my shirt on the uphills, and I would do fartlek work to get in an additional workout. We didn't get the time, because I apparently stopped the timer on the Garmin for about 1.3 miles of the run, but we got to use the route feature of the Garmin today - HOW COOL! We ran until we hit 2.5 miles, and then I went into the navigation menu and chose the option to return to the starting point (after I had marked my parents' house). It first showed a map, but then when I hit the mode button again, it brought up a screen with a big huge arrow on one half of the screen, along with distance and time left (based on our pace). This was so totally cool. It even warned me of upcoming turns (probably would have beeped as well, but the sound on our Garmin is messed up - we are going to send it in when we get back from vacation and have it fixed).
My Dad, my younger brother and I are going to play a little golf tomorrow morning, so I am going to try to get in a run before then. |
