Sunday Solo Cruise

Garmin 820  - Died at mile 8

Goal:

Build Endurance

Ride Description:

Out and back and spin. I left my new Garmin 530 at home and was quickly reminded why I bought it as a replacement to the 820, which died at mile 8. As Dave used to remind me when I freaked out about not having data recorded would say, "Don't worry. It's recorded in your legs." 

It felt like a pretty good day with some good perceived pacing and effort.
