Cheating is terrible! Do unto others, you know. Smile

Just don't look, or set it to peep when you're not on pace.

This is pretty much exactly how I feel. I have a 201 series, and the more I used it, the more I found myself looking at it...frowning...etc. It was such a relief when I started leaving it at home and just going out with a watch, I suddenly felt free again.

I feel the same way! With my garmin (heart rate monitor) and Ipod I almost feel like a cyborg
