Repeats vs Cycles:
People get confused with the Repeats in an individual Interval within a Timer. Repeats will do the same Interval for however many you set...if you wanted to run half a mile 3 times before switching to a quarter-mile walk for example, you would set the Repeat to 3 in your Run Interval. IF you want to run half a mile, walk a quarter of a mile, run another half, walk another quarter and so on 3 times...that is 3 CYCLES of the whole Timer. In that case (which is what is used the majority of the time), leave the Repeat at "0" (this button is located within the set up for each INTERVAL) and on the screen that you named the Workout that lists ALL the Intervals you will see a "Repeat the Timer" section with a place to select number of Cycles. Set that for how many times you want to run the Intervals you have set up.
