You're improving no end GM and won't want pacing to a sub 30 5k, in fact you may end up doing me a favour and pushing me along when I return

Threshold run ✅ Set my Garmin pace bands this week because I wanted to go a bit slower than last week’s tempo pace (it’s quite warm/I’m nursing a bit of a niggle / I wanted to do 2.5 miles tempo instead of 2 miles). Managed to be spot on with tempo pace, but only because my Garmin kept shouting at me! So it was a bit fast/slow/fast/slow 😬

That's the usual problem Lin, unless I'm on a long run my pace fluctuates quite a bit, especially intervals and tempo runs.

I don’t set pace bands with my Garmin but think I should make better use of the kit I’ve got. Mind you, my current Garmin is getting old. I bought it in November 2016 because there was a Black Friday deal. The battery life isn’t very good any more so I’d like to replace it but not sure what to buy.

Ness, I’ve got a Garmin 735xt which I bought in an Amazon sale last year. I don’t usually set pace bands as I like to run by ‘feel’, but I wanted to try it out today.

Useful to know. Thanks, lin. I’ll look at the Garmin 735xt spec. I currently have a 235.

Ness,I had a 235 it was the worst watch for battery life ,any way after 6 replacements I sold it and bought a 735xt which I loved but it developed a fault sent it back and after 8 weeks they lost the watch.I bought in a Black Friday sale so only got what I paid for and not a replacement.So pay £100 more for same watch or upgrade to Fenix 5 XS for same price.The Fenix is all I want and more and has all the features I missed from the 310XT.
