I love the idea. I usually walk more than 5K every day. Usually spend around 3-4 hours a day on my feet, so I've gotten used to it. Unfortunately, I'm not a U.S. resident and I don't have an Apple Watch, so I'm feeling a little jealous. Happy Thanksgiving!

TA-DAAAAA!

I wish there was a way to recall achievements on the Watch. I didn't think to take a screenshot first, but recalling them like you would on the phone would be nice.

Finished 3.62 miles today. But my badge hasn't shown up yet. Anyone else have this problem?

Mine didn't show up at first. As soon as I got home I opened the Activity app on the phone and saw the announcement in the app but no award.

Then I realized I had to end the Workout (Outdoor Walk, 3.51mi). Did so and then I got an acknowledgement on the Watch about 3min later, the achievement on the phone 1min after that, and then on the Watch 1min after that. So it took about 5min+ to get it all squared away.

It was a pretty nice day, so I got a change to put a charge on a solar watch. It needs lots of sun. Indoor LED light was taking forever.

I calculate that to be 8:04 per mile - an impressive pace!

I ran my usual 3.57 mile track at 8:34 per mile, which is a little faster than my target pace of 9:00.

I want to hit 24 minutes by the end of December. Its just funny because when I was FAT BAMF the only running I did was to the fridge and that would take me 40 minutes ��

LOL! If you can run sub 8 minute miles that would be awesome. You're either the next level of conditioning ahead of me, or perhaps a decade or two younger. ;)

I log every run so I know that for 2016 I'm averaging 8:44 per mile for 1176 miles, 19 seconds/mile ahead of my 2015 pace. I'll be perfectly happy to just maintain an average 9 minute mile pace for 2017.
