Minnie Mad Aug 2023 8:46am, 16 Aug 2023 5,090 posts	0 Minnie Mad Wore my garmin to a spa night. It is waterproof, but the sauna proved too much for it and it died after an epic hissy fit of beeping and flashing on and off. In fact it was so bad I had to put it in a locker as it was making everyone laugh. I left it in a jar of rice last night but no great hopes that it will be fixable. It was a Forerunner 35 and I had it around 6 years, so not the most expensive disaster ever but still disappointing.
