Reverse Pacer (Eindhoven / Comrades)

I wrote this app specifically to pace the Eindhoven Marathon, later I learned that also the Comrades race has board mileage signs at the side of the road counting downwards (after 195 meters you'll see a sign 42k to go, etc...). This app helps in pacing these race and to synchronize the distance at the mileage boards (even though the mileage boards are placed in "reverse") . The major differences with the "normal" pacer apps: - The distance on the watch will start at the race length and counts downwards. When running further than the goal distance the distance will display as a negative number (eg 43k will display as -0.8). - Auto lapping is done in reverse. (eg: In the metric system a marathon is 42195 meters. Supposing a lap size of 1000 meter this means that the first (auto)lap will be the shortest lap (only 195 meter) as there will be 42 laps following of 1000 meter. ) - Distance correction is done in reverse (eg: in a marathon after running 1k it'll state on the watch 41.2k, pressing the lap button will change the displayed distance to 41k (and change the internal stored distance to 1.2k - NOTE: that this will not tamper with the recorded distance, this remains based on the gps distance and is measured by Garmin's internal systems)) Button key functionalities; - up/down key: change target speed on the fly to set yourself a new goal - lap key: execute a distance correction (synchronize the distance on the watch with the mileage board on the side of the road) - lap key again within 30 seconds: uncorrect the distance correction
