AM: 8 easy miles at roughly 7:10 pace.  Met Dave and Jed at the Parkway at 5:45 to get in an easy run this morning.  My watch's battery drained halfway through the run, but I know the 4 mile turnaround from before I had a garmin.  Nice run and good company.

PM: 5.11 miles at 6:43 pace.  Late evening run around South Weber.  I saw lots of people out doing fireworks along the way.  I did my 10.5 minute ab workout afterward.

Riley- Thanks for the congrats on the race. I lost my watch in the weeds before the race started. I had the forerunner 305 and I bought a velcro wrist band which worked perfectly and never fell off. If it doesn't show up I think I will get another 305 because I like the big screen or maybe I will get the 310xt. How do you like the 610?

@ Fritz: I do like the 610, but it's the only Garmin I've owned. So, I can't say how it compares to other models. But I like how it's round and a bit lighter than the 205 I've borrowed from my mother before.

That sucks you lost yours, at least you won some good cash today to get a new one.
