Upgrade

Many thanks to Rachel for actually answering my desperate plea for a deal on a Garmin 305. Turns out, she had one she was about to sell after about 6 months of use and helped me save valuable $$ by selling me hers.



Heartrate and speed definitely registered more consistently than my old 301, and it also picked up the satellite signal a lot faster. Did a quick 4 mile run to celebrate and it worked like a charm the entire way. Thanks again!

Good deal.

Are you going to sell your old one?

It looks good on ya, Billy! I bought mine off the back of a truck. Come to think of it, I haven't seen the guy around lately, probably away for 3 to 5... If you figure it out, let me know how to work the setting where you run against a phantom opponent.
