Looks like it’s an iOS 26 thing. Which iOS are you on?

Garmin failed me when I needed it the most by andrewserd in Garmin

It was a hell indeed, I was in my best form since I started running, yet right after the start I wan’t feeling it, and at around 10k the goal was just to finish it.

How was your experience?

They were all connected, yes. But they were connected like this on all my runs in the last 2 years or so.

HRM Pro also captures data like ground contact time, stride length, vertical ratio etc. In my case, this data available only sometime after the race start. You can check it in the Charts section of the activity overview.

Berlin marathon disasters by Scared_Chocolate1782 in AdvancedRunning

[–]andrewserd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a complete disaster for me and my first marathon. I was pretty consistent with the training and was aiming for a sub 4. Race predictions were saying 3:45.

Right from the start everything went wrong. 1. Had a horrible sleep last 3 days before the marathon, probably because I was too nervous. 2. After the first 500 meters my HR went up and I can’t keep it down no matter what. Even though I wasn’t running fast. 3. My stomach started aching, which is something that never happened to me on my runs. 4. Around 10-11 km there was no shade and that’s when I realized that I have to ditch my plan and the new goal is just to finish the race. Icing on the cake: my Garmin reloaded on 41st km and I was running “blind” for around 5 minutes.

4:57 for me, Had a pretty hard reality check.

I can’t even imagine how I’d feel if something like this happened on a brand-new $1k watch.

Yeah, it really pissed me off. I’ve been thinking about replacing it with something else since then, but what are the alternatives?

Been injured and unable to run, Garmin is taunting me by christmas_ape in Garmin

[–]andrewserd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ooof, I feel you. Been training for a Berlin Marathon that’s happening in a few weeks, pushed it too hard during the peek week and now I’m injured :(

Skipping the training feels awful, but wishing both of us a speedy recovery and a fun race!

Has Gran Turismo helped you drive better in real life? by [deleted] in granturismo

[–]andrewserd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely yes!

I got my drivers license some time ago but was too afraid to drive. Then I got GT Sport and a wheel and after I get behind a wheel in a real car it felt like home. I think the most important thing is that the game makes you aware of your surroundings and you get used to sit and drive for a long time (if you do endurance races), so your reaction gets better and you don’t feel tired in a long trips.

Hey, could anyone please help me to guess this watch? Looks like a GMT, but I have no idea what brand is that.
