numbers can be cool. just don't fall into maf or you'll really hate yourself for about a year or so.
I know it works, but need to stay far and clear of the MAF!

I agree. I'm totally for strap-ons! Odds are when my 2nd one finally arrives, I'll wear two at once! You know that you're truly hardcore when you start using a strap-on!I'll defend to the death your right to strap on a device if you choose to do so.
um..... I think I need to scroll up....I agree. I'm totally for strap-ons! Odds are when my 2nd one finally arrives, I'll wear two at once! You know that you're truly hardcore when you start using a strap-on!

I dropped out of that debate a long time ago. To each his own. I think Mike's experience speaks for itself.Keep the debate going and keep changing sides.
A sure way to achieve immortality.That way I never have to decide.
The debate refers to Barefoot Gentile, but I guess it's all happening in my head. I'll send you all an invite to the party someday. When I first contemplated Maf and HR Monitors, his posts of just running without gadgets were enough to sideline that pursuit until Jason began his pursuit of speed posts. Then your Kenyan--Begin Fast posts backed it all up. Now Barefoot Gentile is going back to hardware. It's just funny.I dropped out of that debate a long time ago. To each his own.

See! Keep it up. Eye of the storm, baby....Funny thing since I made this ridiculous post is I still haven't broke out the garmin yet. I've realized I am way to old to be criticizing running gadgets and gloating my methods of running on the internet.
Okay, nice! Finally got my second strap-on device. It's refurbished and looks like it could be in relatively new condition. Though, one can never tell. So I wiped it down with rubbing alcohol to try to remove any biologicals from the last user. This one feels kind of big and heavy compared to my other one. It almost makes me feel kind of puny. Not sure that I'll be able to handle it, but hopefully I'll adjust!
Definitely, the 305 is a clunker! Had it rattling around on my right wrist for half the run. Tighten, loosen, then swapped it over to the left, which made it more tolerable. The left is where I wear the Nike GPS, and I switched that over to the right. I felt bit dorky at first with two watches, then it was all about the running.My understanding is that the strap itself makes all the difference in the user experience. If it's too tight, you're likely to have no end of discomfort. Too loose, and you just don't achieve the appropriate feedback.
I used bodyglide, because it was warm today, and I knew I'd be sweating. Is there somewhere else I should lube on myself or the watch? Oh wait, you're referring to the chest strap. I know what you mean, as I have an old HR strap that I'd moistion with water. Though, I don't wear the chest strap while running anymore. Two GPS watches is plenty of gear for me!Be sure to lubricate properly, or the sensors fail to register at all, making the entire experience unsatisfying.

Actually, I think I like your way better. It's slightly different than the traditional saying, which makes one pause a bit. I think it's an old marketing trick to present something as slightly different than usually expected, which makes people pay attention more.It really stinks when you screw up the title of a thread header and can't edit it.
See! Keep it up. Eye of the storm, baby....
BG, you've never come across as gloating to me. Just experienced. And that has always been helpful. Come and go as you please, of course, but don't disappear.
