I made the transition from a Timex Ironman to a Garmin GPS watch in 2010. I had never used a watch
link that tracked distance before. I just ran the same routes regularly and knew the distance. If I didnt know the distance I plugged the route into various online mapping software that calculated the
link distance simpler times. My first Garmin was a revelation I suddenly knew how far I was going in real time and a
link curse I was unhealthily fixated on pace.
