the forerunner 201 has arrived

On Friday, the garmin forerunner 201 arrived. I really wanted to take it out for a test on saturday, but since that was my b-day, there was too much planned to be able to run. So, this weekend I ran on sunday. I put the forerunner on auto-lap of 1 km, which means that every km, it gives back the time run for that lap. The total run should only be like 5 miles, but I ran 6.5 miles (10.5 km). Since I could keep track of my pace with the forerunner, I ran a pretty steady pace. So, here are the lap times:
1 km: 4:50
2 km: 4:39
3 km: 5:08
4 km: 4:52
5 km: 4:47
6 km: 4:53
7 km: 4:55
8 km: 5:01
9 km: 4:57
10 km: 4:51
total: 51:30 -> avg: 12.3 km/h

The good part is that I did not have too much trouble keeping my pace (12 km/h), and I wasn't too exhausted when finishing. That garmin forerunner is really neat! Now I'll be able to run wherever I want and not have to worry about what distance I'm running.
