    Thanks Great to hear :) will also use it today in Kalmar, Sweden. Good luck in the race!!
  • New versions for this year event..

    Just updated the two fields to support more devices and alos corrected a minor issue in the algorithm. You are encouraged to update.

    I have also two new versions of the fields, one showing the 5min buffered pace and another one showing the current gap between the car and the runner, so this will shrink as the race progresses.
    Not sure if we will be publishing these on the connectiq store but we might.. I added a zip here with the .prg files on these fields in case you want to manually install them (just copy to your /GARMIN/APPS folder on your watch).
  • Quick question with start time.

    Hey all, 2016 Wings for life is tomorrow!!! 24hrs to go!!. With the app, do you start it half an hour after you start the race or from the start? Thanks heaps and good luck..

    Hi! Race starts Sunday, 45.5hrs from bow :) You start the activity with the datafield when the start gun goes off it will account for the 30min car delay and speed increase by itself. Good luck!!
  • Is the updated version posted

    Hey, cool tool and I want to use it this year. Is the version in connectiq the best version to use?

    Yes correct! And they are precise, just start the watch when gun goes off. The ones posted here are just showing different metrics but share the same code base and version.
  • Suggestion regarding Catch Distance

    To get the correct Catch Time you have to start the activity when the start gun goes off. But how about the Catch Distance? Most of the runners don't start in the first line. Maybe there is a possibility to consider this and to tell/inform the app somehow when you cross the start line and to calculate the Catch Distance starting at his point.

    Please excuse my ignorance, but I’ve installed both apps, but when I tried install the data fields, I can’t find them. Do you have and idiots install guide?
