I'm still learning things on my watch and the other day I discovered that it wanted to record 10 minutes of non stop walking. No problems I'll do it on a nice day. Well today is that day so I start doing laps around the house with little dog, the kid comes out to see what I'm doing. I explain. Surely it's been 10 minutes now. Head over to her. She pushes a button and then the timer starts. I don't swear in front of my kid but today I did which brought a huge smile to her tonsillitis face.

When I meditate to a timer, I take a few seconds to make sure the timer's running because otherwise that's all I think about while meditating.

I thought it was going but not showing. It said "ready set go". The confusion happened when it congratulated me for achieving my moving goal but the whole time I'm thinking this better be working. Now I know what to do in future.
