Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I've got a Fitbit Charge HR that I use daily to track all the various metrics that it tracks but as it doesn't have GPS I'm also using my Forerunner 225 to track my runs
The FR also tracks steps etc so is there any way that I can push the data from Garmin to Fitbit? I've got it to push the data on heartrate using myfitnesspal but it doesn't include the steps

Is there a way of me being able to go for a run without becoming part cyborg with one device on each wrist?

I think part cyborg is the way to go - Like .B. I wear both the fitbit and my garmin - and not just for runs, all day, and in bed!

Got something to say?
