Abstract/Description
My project looks at the impact of running watches on running distance. My hypothesis is that wearing running watch hinders running distance performance. My participants will be Facebook running group members. For the first two weeks, they will run with their running watches as normal. The next two weeks, they will run without looking at their running watches. I will compare the running distance between those two time periods to see the impact the running watches have on distance.
