Mas malapit kasi ang the Fort kaysa Clark hehehe ... If you're not running this Nov. 9, hope you'll be around to cheer for Wayne and me (and the other runner bloggers). Pero siempre, mas masaya kung mag 5k ka din para sabay-sabay tayo. Sa Clark naman, 25k ka di ba?<BR/><BR/>Register ka na 5k sa VOS, Gene!Nora, the golden girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00596274436405287487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-766602925566552355.post-6446811032167087852008-10-19T08:05:00.000+08:002008-10-19T08:05:00.000+08:00I love the Timex Ironman!

I get most of my toys that way. :-) You can customize the displays so it shows you the data you like (3 at a time). You can also specify the scroll speed. Or you can tap bezel and it will rollover. If you get the one without the HRM it is less expensive. The POLAR RS200sd with footpod is consistent too...if you stick to one shoe. It gets taranta when you keep moving the footpod to other shoes. ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-766602925566552355.post-77751747764638744212008-10-14T21:42:00.000+08:002008-10-14T21:42:00.000+08:00YOU are a CHAMP, Gene!

Sayang, the probability of us meeting in a race is now slimmer because you're already a 21k runner and I'm still stuck at 5k. I'm training for 10k though. Paminsan minsan, mag 10k ka naman, Gene, para magkita tayo!<BR/>I hope to run 10k before the year ends. <BR/><BR/>Congratulations again, Gene. Legs pala ang weakness mo ha.

Did you order yours online or did you find it locally? 405 is ridiculously expensive if I get one it'll have to be the most basic model. <BR/><BR/>Btw, while on the run, can you 'easily' alternate the display from GPS/Pace/Distance to current time and then back? I've been asked for 'time' a couple of times while running.Gene Ordanzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09378572201080230181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-766602925566552355.post-21363146026295449412008-10-13T22:32:00.000+08:002008-10-13T22:32:00.000+08:00Hey Wayne, thanks! yeah, I'm glad I got over that ...Hey Wayne, thanks! yeah, I'm glad I got over that mind-thing Impossible Is Nothing hurdle at the race :-)<BR/><BR/>Hey Jinoe, thanks man!

But it was such a great race that I didn't mind.<BR/><BR/>I was checking the prices of Garmin 405, they're too darn expensive.

Only bad thing I can say about it is that it doesn't like running in the rain... When the bezel gets wet, it will keep working but there's no way of navigating through the display until you bring it somewhere nice and dry. A brat of a watch. Perhaps something I clearly deserve. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-766602925566552355.post-1399175972173691062008-10-13T12:03:00.000+08:002008-10-13T12:03:00.000+08:00Gene, congrats on the run and nice recap!

Yes, the run started about 5 minutes early, which happened also in the last Rudy Biscocho race I joined in Clark. <BR/><BR/>I'd definitely recommend the Garmin.
