@Brad_Olwin Here here to all of what you said! In some respects, I’m tempted many times to turn OFF much of the detailed analysis features and just go by feel, and use watches for time and distance data (which dual band GNSS has made scary accurate!).
I had someone tell me when I first started running to learn to run by feel, and specifically to go to the extreme at times of literally covering the watch screen with tape (a little harder now with touch lol) to force myself to focus on the run, not the watch. I haven’t followed that as much as I probably should, but just like other posts I’ve made across this forum in recent days, there’s a point that simpler is better. And even with sleep data, my personal take has become more and more to use it as a reference for long term trends, rather than a detailed to the minute view of a particular night.
