Edge705rf-high Renzo Sifting through our inbox recently, we came across yet another great example of people using Garmin products to reach extraordinary achievements. Renzo Martinez sent us a brief email (of which we get many) with a marketing suggestion (of which we also get many) but Renzo's letter stood out for the way he wanted to help us help others excel.

I use a Garmin EDGE 705 and I think is a great product and excellent companion out on the road and during races. It even gets me back to my car when I am out there testing new training routes =). I am a triathlete and marathoner that competes in the wheelchair division. Besides the many advantages of this product, I find it very convenient because before I started to use the Garmin I had to keep two separate cycling computers, one for my racing chair and the other for the racing handcycle. Now I have a united source to track all my training metrics. I think you could market it more to wheelchair athletes, because I don’t see many of them out there.

I included a picture when I was doing the Nautica Triathlon in Miami. You can see the Garmin right by the brake handle on top of the Achilles sticker. I broke the course record for my division that day.

Thanks -- Renzo

Thanks for the great testimonial, Renzo, and good luck in your upcoming events! Click here to see the South Florida Sun-Sentinel's photo gallery of Renzo's inspirational day at the Nautica South Beach Triathlon.
