New Exercise Goal - New Stats - Running Added!

Well pleased - have mentioned this before but will mention it again - the Garmin Edge 205 is a great bit of kit that has more uses than it was ever intended for - have used it for cycling (which is it's primary raison d'etre), golf (don't think they expected it to be so but it's good for measuring driving distance etc) and now, fanfare and drum roll perlease, Running.

Have used it this morning to clock up another 6.5 (quarter of a marathon!!) miles at 5.4mph which is only 8.69km/h BUT it was raining and blowing a gale so quite acceptable if I do say so myself!


Yes have set myself up with a new exercise goal of running at least fifteen miles in the week and these have to be real miles, gym miles don't count (and anyway the machine works in km!). So have done it for first week. Full list of exercise goals are as follows:
  • 100 miles on bike
  • Attend gym at least three times never less than 40 minutes or attendance don't count
  • Fifteen miles road running
Am doing the killer bike ab exercise and the pushups at home but they're not as measurable and are a bit woolly so as long as I keep doing them as well they don't need adding to exercise goals.
