Over-reliance and over-emphasis on training toys ...... (Page 6)

This a great thread!

I've most turned away from the gadgets and technology lately, in fact, I never use my HR monitor anymore (can't find the strap anyway). In fact, I recently swapped out my stem and handlebars and never bothered putting my computer back on. I always wear my watch though.

I bought all the pool toys but now I don't use them at all.

However, some of this stuff is very cool, I like running with my friend who has a 305 as he regularly calls out distance and pace numbers. I thought about getting one but then changed my mind.

I'm burdened with data analysis at work and I really like not having to deal with it while I exercise. I really don't even like logging my workouts but I'm going to start doing that more regularly, probably just on paper though.
