Got my new garmin watch and ran 16k by mistake
So eto na nga, I just got my Forerunner 165 this week and since rest day ko na, I went on a run without my phone and yung watch lng gamit ko. I was aiming for 5k only kasi test run lng but in the middle of the run my body felt good kaya I decided na mag 10k. As I was looking at my distance and nagul

Back to Garmin Fenix Again...
I went from a Garmin Fenix 5, to Tag Heuer Connected, to Garmin FR 165, Back to Garmin Fenix. I will admit, I absolutely hated the Fenix 5 but absolutely love the Fenix 8 47mm (not the PRO). The Tag Heuer only has a 1 day battery which is useless (but the watch looks badass), and the Forerunner 16

Amazfit Balance vs Active 2 (and the Rest): How It Stacks Up Against the Competition
Hi all,
I wanted to share my experience with the Amazfit Balance, which I won as part of the April ABC contest and how it compares to my Amazfit Active 2 (which I reviewed here).
Quick background on me: I’ve been using GPS watches for over two decades, going all the way back to the original Garmi

GPS Watch7 One Ui8 Update
I was out for a walk yesterday and tested the Watch 7 One Ui8 Update Gps.
Compared with Garmin Forerunner 165
I got 5.3 km on the Garmin. Lines very accurate on the roads.
On the Samsung i got 5.7km with very inconsistent lines and zigzag pattern.
400m difference on this short walk is very bad.

My longest run ever! 🎉
I’m really trying this time! Long slow run every week, speed work every week, and one or two base runs. My new Garmin 165 is indispensable for stats and encouragement… way better than my Apple Watch. Come onnnn sub-30 minute 5K!

Mi Band 9 and Garmin Forerunner 165 got the same result
I ran 5K earlier to also test my new garmin watch and how much its data differs from my mi band 9. Masaya ako na yung mi band 9 ko na una kong naging sports watch when I started running 2 months ago, e binibigyan pala talaga ako ng good data to track my progress
