Singer who runs a smidge

    When it rains, it pours, I guess.  Work is totally kicking me in the patootie right now!!  Instrument issues, of multiple kinds.  Tons of samples coming in the door, and none going out!  More work than I can handle, but it's all at my level -- stuff my tech can't do.  Ah well, I guess that's why they pay me the big bucks!

    When it's all said and done, no one remembers how far we have run.  The only thing that matters is how we have loved.

      You will forget you ever heard of Garmins.  They take a bit to get used to due to their simplicity but you had the FR 10 so it might not be that different.

       

      Is it fairly accurate for measuring distance indoors?

        Does it have a replaceable band?

         

        Haha.  I have 7 bands.  The bands can be purchased in every color they have and you can use it on every TOmTom you want.

          It's similar to the Garmin 210, 920, etc., so not really accurate, but you can buy a footpod, I think.  I just use the TM measurement and press lap at every mile and later press calibrate and put the distance.  It's different than the 210 (even though the Garmins are inaccurate inside too) because you can calibrate as many times during the run as you want, if you know the distance.
