What a great outcome lin50! And what a time Pam!!
Going well Muttley with that scaling up. I throw in a couple of "doublers" during my 30/30 but feel it! At some point scaling up will happen....

I’ve decided that 30/30 will be my limit whenever I get back to running. I’ve had too many visits to the injury bench and am looking for longevity.

I did a few 60/30 on my 5k this morning which were tolerable! Was glad to resort to 30/30 and I still hit my max HR....which is why I'm on this regime.

Longevity is to go for XB! I'm hoping to notch up another decade if I'm careful and lucky.

Resorted to heart rate only this morning on a 5k jaunt....after reading loads of articles on HR. With my family history re cardio and me awaiting cardiology appointment I don't want to collapse on route anywhere.

Nice early morning run/walk, though annoyingly I note it was probably more walk/run.😂

Morning team!

So I also was on the HRM this morning - I kept HR to below 155 and shockingly only walked for 3 mins of the 35 I was out which proves fitness has improved. Walks were after inclines :-)

Kept run short then made up time by swimming too

Morning

so today I went back to 60:30 and because it's silly hot decided to stop pottering and actually run my run bit
HR wasn't too high but legs shocked so it seems I have got far to used to potter and that I need to start actually running to make some improvements

opted to miss my swim in favour of the longer run and a sit in the conservatory this morning = didn't want to go to work haha

Garmin now says I am 39% heat adapted whatever that means! It's the only figure that seems to be improving lately LOL

Stay safe people

Where do you get the heat adapted comment from, EvilPixie

?

Never seen it on my F7, do I need to set something up?
