Badger Sep 2016 1:50pm, 24 Sep 2016 7,712 posts	0 Badger The early 610s were terrible for that. I had the warranty replacements inside 6 months. They switched to a plastic back in the end.

Brunski Oct 2016 8:45pm, 9 Oct 2016 24 posts	0 Brunski Well I ran the Yorkshire marathon without regularly checking heart rate (thanks Paul the builder), think this helped me pace my way to a 3:02:28, even though my HR average was only 149bpm. I didn't have anything else to give out there today (as my tailing off for the 2nd half shows). Will definitely play around with HR in the future and see if I can train myself to running at the higher heart rates as may be room for improvement with more mileage and higher tempo efforts. Chuffed with my time though!

Dvorak Oct 2016 9:54pm, 9 Oct 2016 12,281 posts	0 Dvorak Good running. Did your heart rate stay proportional to pace or did it drift in the latter part? Remember HR figures over the next few days (if you check them) may read a bit out whilst you recover.
Brunski Oct 2016 10:17pm, 9 Oct 2016 27 posts	0 Brunski It did drift a little Dvorak, I started out at holding 3:00 pace (6:45-6:52 mm) at around 140-145 bpm, but looking toward the last 6 miles I was 150bpm or above, only managing 7:15 per mile. Will be checking my HR in recovery, thanks for the heads up mate. Few details below: SPLIT TIME 10K 00:42:10 20K 01:24:50 HALFWAY 01:29:10 30K 02:07:51 40K 02:51:55 FULL 3:02:58
Brunski Oct 2016 10:19pm, 9 Oct 2016 28 posts	0 Brunski Sorry should be 3:02:28 for the full

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
