re-running the 2000 troll cup course. map part1 part2. red is slower than 10 mins/k and green is faster than 8/k. I was surprised how well the track came out. I got a new gps a month or two ago, so far I really like it. it goes on your wrist, but includes an elastic expander strap so you can put it around your upper arm (under the t/o-shirt works fine); that's how I've been wearing it. much easier than any of my previous setups with external antennas, and unlike those, it stays secure, so I don't have to think about it at all.

I opted for this unit over the running version (forerunner) since that one seemed to be lacking some basic navigation features, and I didn't care about the special running features, since I pretty much only download the track after running anyway, and don't really ever look at the display while I'm going.

I had it in my head that I had run much faster (84) in 2000, but I guess I wasn't so far off the pace. this may be the first time I've used the rerun splits feature.

blue - Splits

running with mark, jon and their friend ramon at lunch. these guys are fast and I was working to keep up. or maybe it was because of lack of breakfast.

run with mark, a few strides afterwards. legs felt good, but head still hurting from a friend's bachelor party weekend in chicago.
