So today is my first day wearing my new Garmin Forerunner 35 as opposed to my Fitbit, which is slowly falling apart.

The Garmin has GPS (which my Fitbit does not), so I can finally get an accurate assessment of my walking distance.

Let’s give ‘er a roll and see how she does.

Edit: OH MY GOD THIS GIVES YOU SO MUCH COOL INFORMATION.

In GPS mode, it gives you a map of your activity.

It also gives you a plot of your pace. I always wondered how consistent my pace was on a 15-mile walk. Turns out it’s pretty damn consistent.

Heart rate! It was all over the place here. To be fair, though, my route was relatively up and down and had a decent number of stops at lights.

Elevation change!

This is freaking awesome. I love it.
