I have a new toy!

A Garmin Forerunner 305, to be precise.

I can't wait to learn how to program it and take it with me when I run  :D


I'm charging it right now, as I type. I'm going to play around with the different functions and set everything up tonight. I'm not the most tech-savvy person, but I'm hoping to figure out at least the basics before my 5k(ish) run tomorrow.

And I don't care that the design is slightly old-school. I think it looks pretty cool, and it isn't any bigger than, say, a standard dive computer. And yes, that was a random scuba diving reference (I love throwing those in there).

With my new little toy I can keep track of distance, pace, heart rate, etc.

This is very exciting.
