Found Last Saturday's Workout

It is a little lame to be posting this almost a week late, but I figured out how to access last Saturday's workout. It started with some 200 meters repeats followed by a couple of 300 meters and finished with a 400 meters. It was a good time to check the accuracy of the RS800sd's distance measurement. I think that some of the variations were more my fault not starting or stopping the watch exactly on the mark so I'm not sure whether to believe the watch's readings or my pace calculations. In any case, it was a good workout.

I'm not sure why there are discrepancies between my calculated pace and the watch's pace even when the distance measured the same as on the track markings--like on the 2nd 200 meters.

In any case, this morning I did an easy walk with Rosie. Nothing to brag about but I did wear the watch so here's what we did:
