Sunday 8k

Sunday, August 22, 2010

One week after the marathon all but some minor soreness in the ankles is gone. Legs feel good again and tried an accelerating first 5k today. There's a 10k event in two weeks, but I wonder how crowded it will be with walking and zigzagging for the first 1-3k? Under 50 minutes on the 10k [...]

8k at 5:14 pace

Friday, June 18, 2010

A second GPS test

Thursday, September 10, 2009

A secodn GPS test, this time with the 405cx on my left wrist and the N95 in my right hand. I had hoped this would expose the N95 antenna and improve its performance. Not so. The red trace (405cx) still looks much better while the yellow one (N95) jumps wiggles and snakes around. The summaries [...]
