You can always start a run on auto and then switch to manual while the run is in progress once you get to the track and switch it back after the track work. Just hit stop and go to the auto lap menu and turn it off or on. As long as you don't reset by holding the lap button down for the required time or turn the power off, all the run data remains intact as you stop and switch between auto lap and munual. (I only use auto lap by distance) I wish there was an auto lap by time feature Lots of cool features! http://www8.garmin.com/manuals/984_OwnersManual.pdf

Um, yeah, Steve, if I could remember to do all that I'd be able to just count my laps! I can't even remember to switch from bike to running when using it for more than one thing...
I think of my Garmin as a relatively accurate speedometer. I do not consider it a precision device, which is fine with me.
7.12 tempo miles tonight, 7:14's, last three sub-7. At least that's what the Garmin said.

WRFB & PDR each of the last days leading up to the birth seem to take FOREVER
Tammy, I always have issues too, if I'm walking though it seems dead on, when I'm running it always seems to go to .26, no clue as to why it got worse for you
Been scarce these last few days, been SICK with a head cold, I skipped lunch and dinner yesterday, just couldn't swallow. So I definitely didn't run yesterday, I thought I'd switch it up and rest yesterday and run today but I was still sick this morning and I didn't want to overdo it, especially with a long run on Sat. I'm feeling human again and will run easy tomorrow. We'll see if I take Fri as my normal rest day or go for a short easy run.
So this is going on three weeks of carpy training, first I had a trip and week from he!!#$% when I traveled to CA, the following week I was dealing with an achilles issue, and now this week I got this lovely cold from the kiddos. I'm trying to be positive but it really stinks to lose 3 weeks of training. On the positive side, there's still 6 weeks until the marathon and I got in some really good training before everything started to go downhill. Hopefully I'll post about some running tomorrow.

I hereby vow to wear what the local paper captioned our "bright pink bathrobes."
