Trying to keep track

3rd run sans headphones. Been having trouble keeping track of the full 5k since I only have the timer on my phone to keep track of the run and again forgot to start my Fitbit when the running part began to record the run. Was halfway round the first lap before I remembered. 😀I set my timer to 31min this morn and ran a bit beyond it to make up for it, but I stopped a little too early 😊. This morn was 4.83 km at 5.52 pace in 28.2min For me, that was a good time. Was a beautiful morning to run as well. Comfortable, quiet with a cool breeze and the sun on your back! Hard to beat.

I just bought myself a stop watch, as techno as I want to be, press start and away I go

That's a good idea. Where do you keep it while you run? I keep the phone in a belt pocket and it's a bit of a hassle to get it in and out if there.

Got one off amazon on a wrist strap, it's great and no hassle
