Total Distance
3.10

 

Felt very slow and not that great. Knee hurts... why on only 3 miles? And it feels like March out again and its supposed to rain for the next 10 DAYS pretty much! Ugh. This means rain in CDA for the race??! Still cant figure out the right setting on my Garmin for splits! Sorry I'm complaining like blah, blah, blah.  I think I have it figured out now it's lap-pace.  Average pace on the current lap??  I dont think I want distance on current lap?  or do I?

why can't summer just stay????

way to get out there this morning, did it rain on you? How is Frank feeing?

on mine it's set distance to auto lap and then you set the distance to 1 mile. I'm going to ask Leandrea to email you though bc I don't know how yours works!

PS - it would only take me to next Saturday but it shows partly cloudy high of 67 in CDA... That's perfect race weather! Not perfect memorial day weekend golf and lake weather... But perfect race weather! :-)
