I decided to make it two exercise days in a row (getting sick of the knee problem) and so went cycling because there was only a 30% chance of rain with the temperature at about 50 degrees. I did the familiar loop through Discovery Park but made a detour to the marina. I felt good and iced the knee and took a pain killer again after the ride (much less pain and swelling than when running).

On a side note, I've been thinking about getting the new Garmin Edge 305, a GPS gadget designed specifically for biking. The advantages over the Forerunner 201--which I currently use--is that it's much more sensitive to GPS signals thus reducing 'blackout' problems and it has both heart rate and cadence monitors. I haven't had much problems with the signal while biking (more so when running in parks with dense tree cover) except for occasional mishaps when riding through the downtown area, which I don't do that often. So really the advantage would be the cadence and heart rate monitors. However, that would cause me to use separate devices for running and biking. Because the software is different for both, I couldn't combine the results. I think for now I'll stick with what I have. Perhaps the Forerunner 305 is worth considering in the future as it also has the new sensitive antenna and has an optional cadence accessory available.
