Steve NordRunner Oct 2022 10:52pm, 16 Oct 2022 2,049 posts	Quote Pin Steve NordRunner Note that some watches have spoken audio promts, e.g., a choice of values to announce on auto-lap, though I am not aware of any with a spoken count-down. This might be convenient if you are already wearing earphones. support.garmin.com
Fitz Oct 2022 11:05pm, 16 Oct 2022 2,944 posts	Quote Pin Fitz It’s just not loud enough on my wrist, when not wearing earphones. Maybe it’s an age thing: my arms are not long enough for reading, yet too long for hearing! 😆

If you are getting audio alerts over headphones when listening to an audiobook then the book stops when you get an alert. If you are listening to music then the music 'ducks' (reduces volume) when you get an alert but the music keeps playing. Still, the alerts are much easier to hear!

flanker Oct 2022 3:46pm, 17 Oct 2022 20,736 posts	Quote Pin flanker When mentioned earlier that the training plan changes when you add a race to the calendar, is this when you are using one of the pre-defined Garmin plans?
