Switching to the Metric System
I want to be better at the metric system. So, I am converting from Standard system to the Metric system on my fitness reporting. I recently, saw a map of the countries that use the standard system.
It is scary to see that the US and two other countries (that I cannot name) are the only ones that use the standard system. I confess, I am not good at it. So, my fitness is a good place to start with a conversion. I need to think in both systems, so I found out that I am 185lb/85km in weight. I changed the preferences on my Garmin 305 and in Motionbased. So look for numbers that do not make sense, such as kilo-meter, and CM and MM. For example, my Garmin asked my my bike tire in millimeters.
