Three mile trail run.

Okay, so I'm not setting any records here, but you can check out my latest run via Garmin Connect. The data was collected with the Garmin 405 GPS that's really just a watch. It really looks just like a watch. Has heart rate monitor capability, but you do have to use a chest strap for it. Works great, though. Nice gadget if you're into training. I'm going to start capturing all my workouts with it, even the indoor ones where I can't capture movement, just heart rate.

What am I going to do with the data? I have no idea. Suggestions? For now I think I'll just post it much like I do what I ate today for public scrutiny. It'll make me try harder. The question is whether I post the workouts here, on the food blog, or on a new one. Hmmph.

I'm gonna try to remember to ski with the 405 on. They don't support the Mac (yet) for the 405, so I won't be able to upload stuff till I get back, tho.
