Manatee Mentors 2014 v.2 thread2 CLOSED (Poptart/pet pic bribes?) (Page 15)

If you have a link to results for the race, you can email it to them and they will put them in. Might take a couple weeks for that, but it's worked the few times I've done it. They get a lot of races, but not always everything.

Another autosync partnership announcement from Garmin, this time with Strava:

Just about spewed my tea when I read this!!

Athlinks is how I scope the competition for upcoming races.

Cool, 'cause I can't get tapiriik to work. It says it's syncing but my stuff never shows up in Strava!

Heard of but haven't looked at. Now I have to because the Pod pressure.... is.... too.... great....

Having boy withdrawals. Dropped him off, all smiles and excitement, for his first day of second grade.  

I tell ya', it's always harder on the Mom!!!!!!

School started already??? Wow!

lol I was fine until about 8:30. Then I started missing his voice. Speaking of harder on mom...any Navy news?

I can't find a specific form to have a race added.  Is it just the regular contact form here: https://athlinks.zendesk.com/anonymous_requests/new or is there someplace else?

Still waiting on the background check

If you go to Browse > Events and Results there is an Add tab toward the top

Whine time.

Okay, first, the good stuff. #1: Mutti is happy and healthy. That's huge.
#2: I'm happy, as a state of being, and often a feeling.
#3: We have financial resources.

I'm going to have to fire Mutti's 1st caretaker when she gets back. The 2nd caretaker now can only work 2 days/week (occasionally more). What this means is that I need to find 2 new caretakers. For those of you who have been here through these endless cycles, you know how miserably difficult and time-consuming that is. A lot of it too is timing: the instant someone (really good) available gets posted, I need to be one of the first callers or it's not going to happen (and I need 5-7 happenings to get 1 fitting candidate, who then may or may not take the job of course). The catch is that in taking care of Mutti 24/7 (and I get -poor sleep 'cause I've always got an ear out for her and there's usually one or two nocturnal wanderings), I can't stay on top of trying to find a new caretaker.

We're also not going to have #3 if I can't squeeze in some minimum of work. Murphy's Law is happening with our company right now ...

So here are my great plans.

Above all, I'm going to pray and meditate. If there's a God, and I believe there is, and evidence for me personally to that end is great, daily, infinite, blah blah, God will help. If there's no God, doesn't matter. I'll stay (relatively) sane and out of jail.

1 - I'm going to offer a HUGE finder's fee to anyone who finds us a decent, even temporary, caretaker.
2 - I'm going to make my brother commit to a regular schedule of certain hours on Mutti watch so that I can do shyte that really needs doin'.

That's all I got. Any ideas? So tired tonight I shampooed my hair with acne wash and washed my body with conditioner. Whatever, I'm clean (enough).

Search for the name of your race, when it can't find it, manually enter your results.  It will prompt you for an event URL and a results URL.

Got it and done.  Thanks!

Other than Garmin Connect, I am here as well. The last thing I need is more. Anything.

I can't figure it out. I go to Upload then it gives me Device, File, Manual or Mobile. None of those have the option to link to Garmin Connect. Help?!?!?!

I wish I could be a part of the solution for this . Prayer is a really good place to start

Upload

(Device on the left will be selected by default.  Do nothing on the left.)

Garmin > Get Started > Connect

If this doesn't get you straight, check out the DC Rainmaker post (link above) which has photos on how to set it up.
