Subject: RE: Tased and Confused (Team 1) - January Challengeebshot - 2010-01-11 3:36 PM Thanks guys, I'm glad it just isn't me. Make me feel a little better. I did suck it up and I ran my long run. I had a Garmin operator error though. About 4.5 miles into my run, a loose dog came flying out at me. I hate that. I had to yell at the owner to come and get it. The owner was standing there looking at me!!! Come get your dog out of the middle of the road! Dumb people suck. Anyway, I forgot to restart my Garmin after. I thought I pressed the button but nope. So, I checked the clock when I got home and then took the starting time off the Garmin and wallah, I got my run time. I had to use Map My Run for the distance though. Anyone use that? Is it accurate? It seemed long too me. Oh well, I'll take it! ![](https://beginnertriathlete.com/discussion/images/emoticons/smile.gif) Good job getting out there. I'm there with you on dumb people. I have a small canister of mace that I've clipped onto my fuel belt for long runs. I know the dogs where I do my short ones, but sometimes get into unfamiliar territory on the long ones. Hope I never have to use it. I've used Map My Run before I got the G and thought it was pretty accurate. FYI, if you ever get around to getting the 310xt, one of the cool features is you don't have to stop and restart. It automatically does it for you. Alot of my runs are in town and have to deal with traffic lights/intersections so that feature comes in handy. That said, mine's going back for service because the battery is dead, dead, dead and won't recharge. Grrrr. Edited by kcarroll 2010-01-11 2:53 PM
