Garmin Connect - Activity Details for Untitled

I'm testing things out today. The Marathon Training has hit a critical point. Clyde and I both need to get running or we are getting into dangerous territory where we start skipping runs to catch up and then end up injuring ourselves. So, With a few runs done I wanted to see how this Garmin thing works.

You may remember I purchased the Garmin before leaving for Berlin, but it took Garmin almost a year to develop the software for the mac, so I was stuck. Now I've got it and I'm ready to explore it's possibilities.

My runs are short right now. Yesterday was 25 minutes, but they'll be growing the training program I have been looking at for the warm-up period is a slow build up. Week 1: 10 min Tuesday run, 15 min Thursday run, 20 min Friday run. Week 2: 15 min Tuesday run, 20 min Thursday run, 25 min Friday run, etc. It's pretty good for building up to the big mileage. My biggest fear is the treadmill. I'm not sure how 6 miles on a treadmill is going to work. I'm definitely going to need to run in the winter cold. It's going to suck!!

Starting next week I'll be doing a lot of treadmill running, because I'll be in a hotel for 7 weeks. Thank God they all have at least a treadmill. Wish me luck!
