According to a survey by FranklinCovey, the top three New Year’s resolutions for 2008 are: 1. get out of debt or save money, 2. lose weight, 3. develop a healthy habit like exercise or better eating. If you’re among those with a fitness goal or resolution topping your list, Garmin’s Forerunner and Edge devices make exceptional goalkeepers. Whether your goal is to shave time from your 5k or marathon PR (personal record), trim inches from your waistline or complete your first century ride, we’ll get you there. Many new Garmin fitness customers report how motivating it is to see their total mileage, calories burned and other data stored in their unit or our online training site, MotionBased (soon to be Garmin Connect). Not to mention the joy of witnessing their training times get faster and faster. The Jan. issue of Runner’s World has an exceptional feature on testing your running strengths and weaknesses and then adapting your training plan to fill in the gaps. Whether you set out to do the 8-minute test of aerobic performance or the surge speed drill, Forerunner is the perfect tool to track your time, distance and heart rate.

Motivation for mortals: stay tuned next week to hear about a runner, Terrible Terry, who has appeared in several Garmin fitness ads. This guy has some amazing PRs to his credit, trained for the Olympics and recently completed his first “ultra”, a 37-mile trail run that he won without really trying.
