1st walk

http://connect.garmin.com/activity/451809831

Link to first walk with my new pacemaker ; ). Got it monday took out it for about 1/2 mile today. Battery was running low on the garmin (I had tracked my hr about 22 hrs prior to the walk pretty boring 60 bpm for the most part) so no gps or other data, but anyway felt great to get out. Depending on the weather intending to do 1 mile in the morning with the wife, walking to a breakfast spot. Will make sure the garmin is fully charged and ready to go. Yes I am just a bit geeky when it comes to tracking exercise stuff, so thrilled to be able to do it again.

What about cell phone

My son grabs my cell phone and puts on an app called Runtastic. It will give you a time, distance, and show you a map. I think there are a couple of others out there too.

So if the Garmin doesn't work, you may have a fall back.

Hey, enjoy the walks. It's great exercise.

Hi wjs1954. Congrats on your first walk! That had to feel so good for sure. Sounds like things are going well for you. I look forward to being able to get out and walk again but right now it's really cold here and my roads are icy so I have to wait a bit longer but my time will come. Take care and enjoy the rest of your day!!
