You are right, I think I know what I am doing but a bit of advice from another perspective is always welcome. The last time I quit running was 18 years ago and look where it got me. I don't think I will quit this time. Not ever. And while cross country skiing sounds like fun, it'd be kind of hard here in Texas. I do visit the Alps , mostly Austria, from time to time and I love downhill skiing in Whistler Canada but for the most part I think I'll stick with the running :-). Thank you for your kind words.

But this just shows how important it is to get a proper distance calibration. A 1.5% difference on distance (6 vs. 6.1 miles) can mean 10 seconds on your pace.

I've just noticed this little thing. [Quote] The run took me 57:10 which means my pace average was 9:22 minutes/mile. [Unquote] Either the time or the pace are wrong. 6 miles, 57:10 -> 9:32 min/mile. Am I missing something here or is this a new RS800/PPT5 bug? ;) Bye, Lorenzo. :) Oops! I’ve just noticed this little thing.
