Really Bee thanks for the suck eggs statement.

I am anal enough to run the same loops at the same speed so I can compare.

Did I really make an especially stupid comment this morning or something?

Yup - that too.

As a matter of interest I've been looking back at some cycling stats, and for the same AvHR over distances from 70-110 miles, I have a variance of 492 beats per mile to 630 beats per mile!

Absolutely. :)

That's just the maths teacher in me, lol. For info, you mean HR and pace are not directly proportional. If they were, that would indeed mean stopped = dead. For even more geekery, values in direct proportion DO have a linear relationship, but linear relationships do not imply direct proportionality.

I'm in quite a bumpy/hilly area so my runs tend to have lots of short to medium length up and downs, and so I just assume over the length of a run that these things will even out. Last night my HRM went haywire on a downhill and recorded 180+ for a good 1/4 mile, but didn't really affect the overall average for the 15 miles.

About This Thread

Maintained by Elderberry
Everything you need to know about training with a heart rate monitor. Remember the motto "I can maintain a fast pace over the race distance because I am an Endurance God". Mind the trap door....

Gobi lurks here, but for his advice you must first speak his name. Ask and you shall receive.

A quote:

"The area between the top of the aerobic threshold and anaerobic threshold is somewhat of a no mans land of fitness. It is a mix of aerobic and anaerobic states. For the amount of effort the athlete puts forth, not a whole lot of fitness is produced. It does not train the aerobic or anaerobic energy system to a high degree. This area does have its place in training; it is just not in base season. Unfortunately this area is where I find a lot of athletes spending the majority of their seasons, which retards aerobic development. The athletes heart rate shoots up to this zone with little power or speed being produced when it gets there." Matt Russ, US International Coach
