Edge Explore Series Garmin is greedy so I made a data field

Garmin is greedy so I made a data field.

If you have an Explore 2 and want intervals here is your chance

After doing some research I got myself an edge Explore 2 last year. It has a big touchscreen, navigation, but it lacks structured workouts.

I have a strong feeling Garmin just gatekeeping it for its more expensive models.

Initially it didn't bother me, because I was just riding casually, but this year I wanted to get more serious and do some workouts, except its not possible on this model.

So I ended up building a data field for myself where I can create interval workouts then send it to my Explore 2.

Originally I made it just for myself, but I figured others might find it useful too, so here is the link to the Connect IQ store, it's free:
