It seems like just yesterday - or just over six months ago - that we were celebrating the billion-mile mark on Garmin Connect. Well, you're doing your best to make that a distant memory as you've already stored, shared and analyzed another half-billion miles since then! One of the best parts is easy to see: It's free. You can upload your activities and share them on Facebook, Twitter, through email or however you want to show your friends and family what you've accomplished.

But our favorite part is sometimes harder to see: That every mile - or kilometer - has a story behind it. Maybe it's the first run back from injury. Or the first run ever! Maybe you were testing out a new bike - or a new sport - or a new training partner. Or maybe it's the final mile of your first marathon. Or the first mile where you knew you wanted to quit. But you didn't.

Every mile matters. And every mile is memorable. Whether you just crossed the finish line or just began training toward a new goal, tell us about it on Twitter - either at @Garmin or @GarminConnect - or on our Garmin and Garmin Connect Facebook pages, and we'll help you share your stories. The race is on to 2 billion, and you'll be there before you know it.
