When a Garmin Forerunner 570 Crashes Mid Workout

Yesterday the Garmin Forerunner 570 crashed mid-workout while doing MAS intervals at a critical moment. It crashed while I was running at 4:35 per kilometre so I couldn’t reboot the watch with ease and re-start the workout.

I had to stop, type in the code, re-start the workout, and then start running again. This glitch teaches us two things. The first is that beta versions of Garmin software do, sometimes, crash, and the second, is that having a backup watch is always worthwhile.
