    Colleague, you who know so much, and I'm not saying it sarcastically. Are you encouraged to explain well how UEFI works and if linuxers are going to affect us? I have known out there that they intend to remove the normal BIOS by 2020.

    Excuse me partner, if you have a basic Garmin watch, how do you sync it with Golden Cheetah once the software is installed.
    Best regards

    @Frank,
    without having a garmin, or being very athletic; DD
    I suppose you will have to store the information in your garmin, and then export it to the Golden Cheetah program:
