Down 191.2lbs since December 5th! I actually reached the goal a few weeks ago, but wanted to wait until I had settled and hit my 1 year mark. 1 year ago yesterday I visited my primary care doctor and asked for a referral for weight loss surgery if I couldn't drop a decent amount of weight and turn

Just got my first price mistake deal!

I already have a Forerunner 265, but I got the Forerunner 965 at an amazing price. I’m thinking of gifting the 265 to my wife. For those who’ve used both, is the upgrade worth it, or should I stick with the 265.

Any advice would be appreciated!

Mag ik even shinen?

Ik ben sinds 1 februari begonnen met hardlopen na jaren niet veel te hebben bewogen. Ik zit veel achter de pc, in de auto en lag veel futloos op de bank. Tijdens een medische check via het werk kreeg ik te horen dat mijn BMI en bloeddruk te hoog waren. Dat was de druppel voor mij.

Joined the 965 club!

Bought the Forerunner 965 today, upgrading from the 935 which had served me well for many years but was beginning to suffer on the battery life.

A really nice watch with a bright and responsive touch screen. Love it!

My new 965 arrived today

After 4 happy years with my Instinct I decided to treat myself to a forerunner 965. I'm very excited and can't wait to try it out.

Finally joined the Garmin family

Have to give shoppers a huge shoutout for their bonus points redemption event allowing me to get this forerunner 965 for under $600.

Can’t wait to start using this and the coaching features to improve my training after having an Apple Watch for over 7 years. Already this watch blows Apple out of th

What cool shit have you bought lately?

I think a nice part of being in our 30s is we can afford to buy cool fun things. What have you bought lately?

I got a Garmin Forerunner 965 which is super tight, motivates me to limit my drinking and I’ve been killing cardio because of it

Also fun - bought a LAB putter which is a ton of fun

Anyt
