My run captured on the Garmin heart rate, speed and distance monitoring device

Several of the colleagues asked about the small black color Garmin device (about 1" x 2") attached to my shoe. It's call the foot-pod. It measures the distance, speed, pace and cadance of the run and wirelessly transmit the data real-time to the watch on my wrist.
I wore the heart-rate monitoring strap during this run too. It transmit real-time heart beat information to the same wrist watch.
Once at home, I plug the USB wirelesss device (about same size as a typical USB memory stick) into my home computer. The software on the computer starts up automatically, detects the watch and transfers the data from the watch to the computer. The chart will be plotted and displayed on the screen immediately.

I ran from the carpark to the gate. And on the way back I ran to the small side road and then back to the carpark. The total distance covered is about 5.69km. 31 minutes & 29 seconds. Average speed is 10.8km/h. most of the time the heart rate is at Zone 4. For the final 1.5 minutes, Zhi Jing and myself sprinted all the way and my max speed was at 21.3km/h. But he was ahead of me !!

The first graph I shown here is over time.

The second graph I shown here is over distance.




The final table I shown here is the total distance I ran together with this device which is about 151km since I got this device on 19-Oct-09.

Running on treadmill today

Went to SCC gym and ran on treadmill for a 5km or 30 minutes run.

Set the speed at 10kmph. After 1km increase the speed to 11kmph. At 27 minutes further increase the speed to 12kmph for the final 3 minutes run.

Felt good today after the run. Believe that I can do a 10km run below 60 minutes.

Did not bring my Garmin heart rate and speed monitoring device. So no charting data. Did went to buy a replacement battery for the foot-pod. Yeah.... will start publishing the Garmin running chart again data soon!
