Equipment tracker

I continue to track gear by entering shoe information in the description field of my GC activities. When gear tracking becomes a part of GC (see quote below), at least I'll be ready.

Wow only like 6 years to implement this planned feature!!

Thanks for adding the gear tracker!

Thank you for adding the gear category so we can track shoe mileage.
Follow up request: Making it a sortable/filtered column on the activities page.
Thank you again.

Thank you for listening Garmin! This was the last feature that I needed in order to start using Garmin Connect full time. I'll start to use the feature and will provide feedback after I become familiar with it.

One improvement that I see right away: It would nice if when I add a new pair of shoes (or any new piece of equipment) that I have been using to be able to enter a "Starting Mileage", reflecting the miles that I have already put on my shoes previously. This way I can still have an accurate total mileage and not have to go back to every run and attach the shoes.

Thanks again!
Mark

Garmin -
Thanks for finally adding the gear tracker!
It's implementation is almost perfect.
The only change would be to have 2 fields when you enter new gear.
1) Current miles / km on the gear
2) When to get a notification for the gear to expire

This is only an issue if the user is new to Garmin or for all of us just getting the feature now when we already have 200 miles on our shoes.

But, other than that, the implementation is great! I love how easy it is to add gear to a workout and track. That part is the best implementation I have used on any fitness site

Cheers,
Tom

I agree with Tom the "Current Miles/km" field. I posted the same comment before I saw this. This field will make it easier for those of us transitioning in from using some other Gear Tracker.

Thank you for adding this feature! This was the last feature I needed before being able to use GC as my only logging software. Yeah!

I use ST to log gear miles before GarminConnnect Added the function. Like Mentioned Before "Additional Miles" used would be a nice feature to add and I already XX,XXX mi on my bike. Added to Garmin Connect and its New again(0 miles used) :D. Yea!!!!!

Well, it's been a long wait. Actually, my first post that started this thread in 2009 quoted a post from the MotionBased forum. Garmin acquired MotionBased Technologies in 2005, but the forum name remained until 2009.

I can add gear into the gear field but when I am in an activity it says I have no gear and asks if I want to add it. Also, I would love the field to put in existing mileage on my shoes.
