I think it's just for the cheap version of Windows, like "Home" or whatever.

Good luck!
Cool thing about 5Ks is that you can do one now and another one 2 weeks later.
Still worth investing in a good 5K season though (I e. you do a lot more sprint intervals and threshold runs). I prefer long distances but spent the past 5 months or so solely focused on improving my 5K times and it's making me a much better runner, including for long distances.
I find Garmin's data and charts very useful. I've never been an "instinctive" runner: I don't know what I'm capable of, and I don't exactly know how I'm feeling past the basic post-running feeling... strange, I know. So I need to see the data to get a clear picture. Using the device's data has taught me a lot, and has made me connect the dots between my training and my performance. I fully credit my improvement in running (pace, economy, endurance, etc) for the past few years to Garmin's metrics help.
That said, it takes a while getting used to them. Personally, I use the data as a guide, but I never take predictions and such at face value. They can be a bit off, either positive or negative; I've seen both. For example, I think it tends to overvalue long distance training runs for performance prediction.
But I think I'm at a point that I can understand what it's trying to tell me, and find some correlation with how I actually am. I think that's the way to go with Garmin.
Good for them. Respect++.
This.
Also, food deserts are a thing. Poor communities often don't have access to good food, at all.
It's expensive to be poor, and in this case the price is in one's health.
Wow, he's living in 2012 or whatever. A true time traveler.
But also this for balance:

I honestly read this every year. There are some deep lessons there that are so important for software and product development in general. It gets better every time I read it.
In this thread: people bending over backwards to defend their insane, non-logical unit of measurement
Can we just celebrate good apps instead of go all out "too indie for you"?
Amazing. Well done!
