Hey everyone, Happy Friday! "Six hours plus is still a really long time on a bike and can't imagine what a full marathon afterward" is the same issue I have with signing up for a full. What is the longest you rode/ran?


My longest ride was about six hours (three or four times), close to IM distance but not quite. Longest run was 3 hours. I've done several in the 2:45-3 hour range. But my coach doesn't believe in really long bricks. I haven't run more than about an hour off the bike. I have done what she calls "triples" several times--IM length swim and bike on Saturday and then an 18-20 mile run on Sunday morning. But have to pull it off now without a 10-hour nap in the middle!

Nashville is more fun. Bass pro shops in the glass pyramid is worth going to. Grace mansion too.
BTW. I'm still alive. Didn't feel like it earlier this week, had some type of crud. Head, chest throat fever, etc

Nashville is nice, but downtown does not have much in the way of vegetarian food options Lots of BBQ and honky tonk places though!

Aww, sorry about your tiny grandma.  Sending her many good thoughts.  It's so wonderful you were able to spend some time with your older relatives.  Cherish the talks, the moments, the times.  The knowledge and experiences of that generation is slowly getting lost.

Anyone else having trouble getting their Garmin to sync today?

It says it is and it is picking up my steps and calories but not my actual run. I've tried turning my watch off, and my phone off, but with no success.

There was new software for mine today, maybe that is the problem?

I didn't have any issues.

I've been having data problems with Garmin all week. Specifically, the TrueUp feature which is supposed to add steps from multiple devices. I'm weird so this is what I do.

  • Vivosmart 3 is my regular step tracking day watch. I charge it when I run.
  • Wake up and walk Zoe using Vivosmart 3.
  • Put Vivosmart 3 on charger and don 920XT for my run. Go running. Turn on activity tracking and walk home.
  • Put 920XT on charger and put Vivosmart 3 on wrist.

Normally, steps from Zoe's walk and steps from cool down walk both sync to Garmin Connect and to my Vivosmart 3. Since Monday, it's been syncing to GC but NOT to my watch. This is annoying.

So yes, I think that Garmin changed something.

My routine is basically the same using Vivosmart for everyday and Garmin 935 for training.  Everything usually syncs together, though recently my dog walks using Vivosmart are duplicated in Garmin Connect.  They show up once as "walk" and once as "other" and I'll have to delete one.  If I don't use both devices during that day, it seems to work fine and uploads only the once.  This also just started happening this week.

Guess I'm happy I don't sync anything but my 920 (or 520 if using my bike)!

I am here in Langkawi, Malaysia; Andreas (bike) apparently is unscathed as well and is now resting comfortably in transition for the night. Swim course is beautiful; bike course (what I saw of it) looks hot, at times hilly, and has plenty of monkeys. Run course looks flat and hot! I guess the only saving grace is if I'm slower on the bike I get to do more of the run in the dark! OMG send good IM juju my way! #1062.

For those who are old enough, I think "Gilligan's Island" was based on Langkawi. Dead ringer for the location; the planes come in really low overhead (hotel is near the airport runway, as is the finish line) and I keep expecting the little guy to run out and yell, "De plane! De plane!"

You are going to have a great race even without us sending good juju way - but we are!

Monkeys!  Eeek!  Glad you made it there safely - have a great race.  Here's hoping the monkeys and heat stay away!

I am doing one on my own. We are camping with a bunch of friends down in eastern NC. I will need to get up and run/walk to counteract the food and fun.
