.....at what point do I switch on my fitbit? 😂

I've been switching it on at the start of the warm up and off at the end of the 5 min cool down. So that's what it recorded this morning.

Thursday I'm only going to record the 25 mins run, not the 5 mins either side.

On another note, I got a mention in the Brundall park run page. Lol. Pirate fancy dress on the 16th. I'm smart enough to volunteer that day. Ha har me hearties. ⚓🚣

I always monitored the walk and the run segments, but when I got to graduation I suddenly realised I didn't really have any idea of timing or distances when I was running. So i didnt know if I was close to the mythical 5k in 30 mins or not... ;0

I'm not obsessed about it, but I was curious to understand. Now I set Map My Run to record solely the run, and I ignore the walking warm up and cool down.

Well done you for volunteering for the Park Run marshalling. Run one, marshall one that's a nice plan...
