I got 100 every morning when I first got the 255 but it was just love bombing me.

When I get more than 7 hours of sleep and don't run my BB to the ground during the day, that's not lower than 25 by the time I go to bed, I get to 100 at night.

BB 5, no sleep logged, no HRV logged, stress around 75 most of the night. After all that the positive COVID test was not a big surprise.

Get well soon Badger.
That diet sounds amazing EP!
I do seem a bit run down but probably just the cold I’m getting over.

Get well soon Badger x

Been LFTing daily this week as we were exposed last weekend.
Also keeping an eye on hrv - which has been on an upward slope with rhr on a slight downward trajectory.

Garmin has said said stress levels are high, and sleep poor but have also been worried about mum as well as other stuff linked to the COVID exposure.
Pleased to say that *so far* Garmin’s lack of negative response has tallied with a pile of -ve tests.

I got my weekly email yesterday from a chappie who's touting for coaching business and he was talking about ground contact time, which made me have a look at my Garmin data for this metric. Firmly bottom half on typical runs, never as low as 200ms even on short efforts, av. 226ms for my virtual mile (cadence 184) and 281ms for the ploddy 11-mile run I did last week (cadence 161).

I'm not sure how accurately a thing on my wrist can assess ground contact time or whether it's just more junk data to not fret about.

222ms is what I got in my 3000m PB race a couple of weeks ago with the RD Pod. I don't get below 200 in sprints either.

Interestingly in my best 1500 of the year, my GCT was 232 wearing the RD Pod.

In my mile a week ago on Wednesday where I didn't have my RD Pod I got a GCT of 197. I had tired legs from a Scafell Pike hike over the weekend that day so I'm not convinced that the difference is real (rather than related to the different way of measuring). I've just checked an 800m with the RD Pod which came out at 204 so even less convinced.

About This Thread

Maintained by EvilPixie
According to my Garmin this morning my body battery was at just 41 and I was "strained"
I have been strained for most days in the last 2 weeks
My body battery has also been low

So today it suggested a threshold run of up to an hour!

What's your Garmin say?
