Not a happy bunny! Managed to either rick my back or pick up a chest infection since graduating, so no running for me since Wednesday. Boo! Instead, have been pouring over descriptions of various Garmins and trying to decide what colour to get. Decisions, decisions....

Thank you grannyjudes. Weirdly, I feel absolutely fine apart from my back. Suspect I should have listened to my mum when she nagged me about my posture as a kid!

Hope you feel loads better soon, GM! :-) The pink Garmin Forerunner 10 is most fetching, and a great piece of equipment too, which I can heartily recommend!

The pink is brilliant and has the dual advantages of matching one of my favourite tops AND being cheap. A strong contender I feel.

I've got the lilac Forerunner 10. It's lovely but the beeps if you set it for intervals, are inaudible. (Perhaps because I've ancient ears!) Does anyone do an ear-trumpet that connects to a Garmin...via USB or something young and hi tech like that?!!

Hope you feel much better soon. Take care. X

Ha ha, USB ear-trumpet, sounds fab, I want one. The lilac is lovely and it would match my beautiful ugly shoes (beautiful because they're so comfy, ugly because, well they're just ugly!)
