a friend sent this to me.. thought I'd share it..
"Count your miles down. Studies have shown that counting up is tougher psychologically than counting down. Focusing on ever increasing numbers is like telling your body over and over how much hard work it's already done, making it harder to keep going. Flip if for an easier mental win"

It actually does work. my home treadmill counts UP on time... the one at the gym counts down.. and it does seem easier and not as bad when I"m using the one at the gym...0

Just browsing this group and sorry to revive an old thread, but you can get your garmin to do that. Just put the distance of the run you're planning as a simple distance workout and it'll count down till you've finished.0
