My new toy showed up! The Suunto T6c Multi Sport Pack. Basically, it’s the T6c and the GPS pod. And of course I gave it a try tonight for my run. But let’s go with the basic parts first, I did my normal 2.46 mile run around my house. I did it in 23:26.9 First lap was 12:03.3 and the second one was 12:05.2. It was slower than what I have been running it, but because I was trying to figure out what I was doing with the T6c.
So, other than slowing down my run, since I don’t know what I’m doing with it, it confused me. At first I thought it was wrong. I was running along, and it was showing 7minutes… I was thinking, there is no way I’m running seven minute miles.. Then I thought maybe it was mph. But when I was sprinting across a street I noticed it went down to 3… So no way that could be mph! I got home and it dawned on me! It’s a Finnish device… It’s defaulted to metric! 7 minutes per km! Now that makes a lot more sense! I still haven’t figured out how to figure out how to get the various stats from the watch. I played with the software a bit, but it’s slightly confusing as well. Much more playing around required to fully understand it. But no more time left tonight…
Time for bed… Night All!
