I remember when...

Was thinking about this while out on my run yesterday, thought if we put a list together it would serve as a motivational tool for ourselves and others... I remember when... I could only run for 1 minute 30 seconds without a walk break.. I thought running a distance of 10 kms was impossible... I tho...

I used to carry a water bottle but splashed out on a fuel belt, great investment, my posture is better from not having something in one hand and I can use my arms properly for extra leverage.

HR and running

Now a question about HR. I was wearing a HR monitor and from what I have been reading the max HR they calculate for you based on your age is rather inaccurate. Mine is 185 but I was pretty much in the 170s all the way round, briefly hitting the 180s at the end. I didn't feel like I was giving it my ...

I went by Costco on Merrivale (Ottawa) today and the Garmin 305 is $199.99 there so I bought one. Great price, can't wait to play with my new toy!!!

Serves him right. I am sick of all these clowns clogging up paths, walking along at a snails pace, gormless expression on face while texting inane drivel to their "friends". Same goes for using a non-hands free cell phone whilst driving.

Ugh.

Garmin 305 question

To the Garminites out there. Can two people share one garmin and keep separate race/training files etc? I ask this because my wife and I typically do not run together (I run longer distances and we take turns as someone had to mind the kids :)). So therefore could we both use the garmin and keep all...

Cheers.

I can actually just go to the costco store and buy for $219.


They have a few refurbs on ebay from USA at $165CDN "buy it now", but again I am unsure as to whether I would get billed for taxes and duty etc.

Best price on Garmin 305 w/ heart monitor

Hi,

Does anyone know what the best price is for a Garmin forerunner 305?

I saw it for 219 in Costco and it is pretty cheap on amazon but I am not sure if I will get dinged for duty and tax when it reaches the US/Canada border.

Anyone get any better deals recently?

Cheers
