The tyranny of technology

Doing my part to help move the economy along, and move myself along, I bought a Garmin 305 GPS for running. J&R had it for a fantastic price on one of their typically tempting close-out deals.

The damn thing works! Too well. It revealed that my 8-mile running route is actually 7.63 miles, and my 6-mile run is in fact a mere 5.5 miles. Therefore, my pace is slower than I previously believed.

You know what that means. I need to do more running and less blogging!

  1. The guy who measured the official course change that put it under — ugh! — Mass Ave. works for you! Or have you forgotten? 😉

  2. Uh-oh! Better check the Boston Marathon route – maybe that’s short, too!
