Ran with my sister at home before coming back to Buffalo.  Got to try out my new toy, a Garmin 405.  We wanted to go for 6 but living in the middle of nowhere and a bad choice of a left stretched it into 9 miles (average pace 7:45).  IT was pretty much the longest I ran in 5 years.  And the Garmin is SUPER COOL!  No shin pain, I only get it on the treadmill, must be something with my gait when on it.

Got a foot pod for the Garmin GPS watch so I had to run on the treadmill tonight to check it out.  It worked perfectly and was only off by 1% over 3 miles (uncalibrated).  Way better than the nike junk.  Average pace was 7:37 and check this cool pace/cadence chart you can make!.  Awesome Oposum!
