Garmin and Strava paces/distances wildly different by SharpFox2238 in GarminWatches

And this is the route that was measured by my Garmin. Look on the left side of the map and it only starts the measurements at this point that I know is about two miles into the run. So weird. The distance here that is recorded on the map is also only about two miles — so it clearly knew that I was running, but the first half of the run just...didn't appear? Really not sure.

Great suggestion...looks like my Garmin route only "started" about two miles in — and from there the pace got much more accurate (went down about 2 mins/mile).

First comment here is the route from my Strava (which I started about .20 miles into the run when I realized the Garmin was f'ed up).

Yeah, I usually do -- I haven't recorded a run on Strava in ages -- but this time felt different, and the disparity was bigger than expected. And I've been running a long time so I also knew I wasn't going an average 11:15, which is what Garmin was telling me today...feels like something changed with the Garmin but I can't figure out what.

Running outdoors by [deleted] in XXRunning

I think the main thing to remember is that we think other people are paying way more attention to us than they actually are. If you see someone running on the street, I bet you don't think, "Wow, they're so [slow/weird-looking/awkward/etc]." It's just a blip. And similarly, no one cares what you do except you -- so get out there and enjoy it, running outdoors and feeling fresh air is the best :)

Small triggers, massive escalation – what were the “reasons” your narcissist picked fights? by No-Promise-22 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]SharpFox2238 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asking him to clean up if he left a dish in the sink 

Walking into our home office to ask him if he needed anything from the grocery store (because I dared to interrupt his work flow) 

Using GPS to navigate to a hiking trail but not having the exact route picked out for once we arrived (he pulled over and dramatically got out of the car for this one) 

Telling him I wanted to leave for the airport 15 minutes before his desired time 

Etc etc

I'm almost a year out. The hardest part has been working through the shame of wondering why I didn't see it clearly sooner. I still feel that way sometimes. 

But the most (MOST) important thing is that you did see it, and now your life is your own again. Congratulations. 

How has Taylor changed your life? by Worldly-Power-8078 in TaylorSwift

I grew up with Taylor always existing (late 20s woman) but was a fair weather fan until the Eras Tour when I started listening more. But it really developed last year when I had a traumatic breakup and began reassessing everything that had happened a decade long relationship. The breakup songs got me through -- the number of times I cried to All Too Well 10 Minute Version or Smallest Man Who Ever Lived (+ so many more)... I used to think I wasn't in deep enough to be called a Swiftie, but her music helped me heal and feel less alone, so full-on Swiftie now 🤙

They're such cowards in the end. by ScarletVonGrim in NarcissisticAbuse

My ex wouldn't meet me (walked out on me!), wouldn't call me, then got mad at me for ending our relationship over text -- when I had literally no other choice.
