More Garmin Issues

I remembered to bring my Garmin in my workout bag to work this morning; forgot my towel instead today but thats another issue..... I charged the Garmin using the wall plug last night cuz it was still charging when i shut down my computer; it was fully charged this morning. The issue I had today was that the unit never exited the "Locating Satellites...." screen. Usually it goes to the default screen display once it locates the satellites. Was cloudy; hopefully that was the issue. I did run with it and it did seem to be accurate. I ran the same course as Monday in order to see what that mileage was; 2.56 miles for both Monday and today. This is the longest streak that I've had in some time; 5 consecutive days albeit short distance and slow pace. I'm calling it my comeback/taper combo.

Hi Pat,
I ran the 1st half with the trail group last night too. I don't remember seeing you, but I don't think I saw everyone that ran. I had a similar issue with my Garmin. See my blog for details. They were great about handling it...

Hi
I saw you at Forestgate right before we took off; I never made it up to the group before I turned at Kuhkendahl and ran Flintridge to Woodlands Pky. Thanks for the Garmin tip.
