I'm selling out and converting over to miles to make it easier on everyone
.
Nooooo!!! If they want to know your distance in miles, they should be able to convert kilometers to miles and vice versa! Little math does not hurt anybody :bigsmile: :glasses:
Personally, I think math is deceptively treacherous, but I am capable of using a calculator.
Mathematics are gloriously beautiful and so logical... it is arithmetic that will get you every time:laugh:0 -
Can't seem to get my ticker to display my mileage. Any help would be appreciated.
Ran:
2 miles - 10-2-14
1.25 miles - 10-5-14
Hi! You have to enter 3.25 miles in the ticker setup, in the same place where you have to enter the password. It asks:
"Your current cumulative value:" and you enter 3.25
Then, it asks your "target goal" and you write your goal for the month, as I think you did.0 -
New on this. Maybe my goal is too high, but let's see. Maybe I will consider walking and running.

Math is logical and true -- unlike the English language where one word can have multiple meanings. Now THAT is deceptively treacherous.0 -

Brings my total for the month to 23k
My goal is 90k so only 67k left. :happy:0 -
