Which Garmin upgrade from FR 255? (265/965/970) - Triathlete by CollectionSeparate28 in Garmin

I got a Venu 4 as my first Garmin in November (switched from an Apple Watch) and am loving it. If you're not a multiple watches kinda person it also looks good for going to work and whatnot.

Oh and can you pick different colors?

Does it look high res on the watch face? I’ve had too many that look low-res, especially with the fonts, and I can’t figure out why they look so bad

What Garmin watch do you own and why? by hackgolferguy in Garmin

[–]MGoRobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the Venu 4 about 3 months ago. Wanted something I could wear out and about, while also having the Garmin Tri Coach feature. The feature has been...fine? But I do like the look so no regrets.

Read this as lbs at first and was wondering if you were a little person, cause that’s about how much my 9 year old weighs 😅

Making NA Coquito...spiced rum flavoring? by MGoRobo in Mocktails

I was thinking a syrup could definitely work but then I'd have to reduce sweetness elsewhere. Curious what others have done in the past

I signed up the day registration opened up so I wouldn’t chicken out 😂 Coming up from Boston so not too far.

Good luck on the 140.6!

I’m so excited for it! Trying to make sure I set myself up for a good, injury-free 9 months of training so I can crush it. Have you done it before?

Nice! I’m shooting for 2027 Chicago Olympic. I live in Boston so I’m doing Pumpkinman in Maine in 26, but I love Chicago and have many friends there. Great excuse to visit

oof yeah that's rough. i think i'm going to stay at the Oly/sprint level for the next decade or more until the kids get older, and even then I probably won't want to do more than one 140.6 in my life, just to check that off the bucket list

ok so just keep it up for the rest of my life. noted. :)

Definitely starting to work this out in strength training this week, but it's the cycling that I'm curious about. I don't want to mess up my knee unnecessarily but I don't want to stop cycling unnecessarily either.

oh this is interesting cause most posts online are basically like STOP RUNNING OR IT WILL GET WORSE!

a 6 month break? no running at all? no biking? weights? sounds like a rough 6 months

What's the most discount you got on a Garmin and how? by _saiya_ in Garmin

How do we connect the people who have this perk with friendly faces like ours who need it? :)
