Q1 Update

Just committed to the Vertical 2 from Garmin FR955. Things I’d like - Resume later feature, but I understand this is unlikely; Integration with a better weather service like Windy (including UV index and a precipitation radar visible in activity mode); Widget for Intervals.icu; distinction between v

What actually is good in Coros?

If i have to be honest i switch from Garmin FR955 Solar to Coros Pace pro running 4 times per week didn’t see any difference in my results from tracking my HR, sleep etc.. So overall im very happy with my decision for switch. Also the simplicity of the app and the watch is what i like the most.

Okay everyone......"Adventure" Watches.

That makes any of the solar flavored garmins a possibility. If you cared about other sports, it would rule out some others.

H10 Polar exhausting

My H10 refuses to update software. After about 10 tries, and 3-4 hours of trying I gave up. It takes forever for it to update, and disconnects/fails just out of the blue. When I finally managed it to get 100% it kept going until 124% and still kept updating??? lol. And then it disconnected... I now

Why AWU over the likes of Garmin?

Moved from Garmin FR955 to AWU3. I wanted cellular connectivity in my wrist to be able to take calls from my family and listen to audiobooks on long runs while not having to bring my phone. Other features that pulled me over are satellite connectivity for trail runs, being able to use Apple find my

Weird treadmill pace on Garmin watch (via QZ/ANT+)

Ok, so I tested both options (getting treadmill data to my Garmin): QZ/ANT+ metrics to Forerunner 955, starting a treadmill workout on the watch. The speed and distance reported are still completely weird, see first post. I also noticed that they are also reported line this in Garmin Connect. Natura
