Anybody ever try this?

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

A monstrous Garmin and a battery pack all strapped and rubber-banded to a runner's chicken-bone wrist.

It's a look.

I can't boast to have run for 10+ hours, but you don't need the duracell battery pack to do this. They now sell nifty rechargeable usb chargers that can hook up to any device with a usb adapter. Downside is they cost around 30 bucks, but you can use it to charge your phone, etc. Too.

I think this could be done cleaner. Otherwise, that is way to bulky.

Oh, you're right. I just looked at them again. They are not about how to make my Garmin Forerunner last all day.

I just know if it lasts more than 4 hours I am supposed to call a doctor.
