Garmin Forerunner 220 – My New "Toy"

After my disappointment earlier this week I was SUPER excited to finally get to use my new Garmin Forerunner 220! Amazon was super speedy and sent me a new one right away as the old broken one was shipped back.

Little Man and I went on a walk and I tested it out (and deleted the history because I don’t want it counting towards my run mileage). I did learn that we walk around a 16 minute mile pace! After he went to sleep, it was mommy’s turn to go out and play with her new toy.

To be honest, I almost didn’t go tonight. Had my watch not come I probably would’ve taken the day off. I generally try not to run 3 nights in a row (especially after I randomly ran a 10k last night) but there was a new toy involved so off I went.

Tonight was THE. PERFECT. WEATHER! If every night this summer could be this awesome, I will be 100% set for the year. Actually can our half marathon day be EXACTLY like today?

Please Mother Nature?

Okay, anyways. I wound up running 4.15 miles, a little longer than I had planned on but I figured out a nice new route and it felt great to get out and do it, especially with my new Garmin!
