Bike Friday, Run Saturday
Continuing my Austin Tri recovery week, I biked for 30 minutes on Friday morning, and I ran 3 miles this morning.
We went to the REI garage sale last weekend and I found a Garmin Edge that was on sale for about $50 (MSRP $399). It had been returned because the heartrate monitor didn't work. I think the person that returned it either didn't know what they were doing or used that as a convenient excuse. We mounted it on Jeff's bike and the thing seems to be working fine! It was in almost pristine condition. The bike mounts were unused. It had two workouts stored in it, about 6 months apart, and for about 10 minutes each. The heartrate has worked for one workout so far, which was longer than anything stored in it. What a steal we got!!
And to top it off, Garmin is offering a $75 rebate if you sign up for the Powerbar email list. I can't find anything in the T's & C's that preclude us from collecting. I'll be very surprised if they do give it to us, but I gotta try. All they can say is no.
