X Post, Shades. Yes, much fresher today. I see you’re not on the list for Barnstaple, which although understandable is still a shame.

I want to try the Nimbus and Triumph but in no rush really.
Nice running Rcouture I liked Newport when I was there for a race.
Shades nice running this morning.
I had an awful night so debating rest day or short easy run.RHR +8 so need to be sensible.

Big G glad all went well yesterday and I think music can really get you as so much emotions involved.

Big G - good to hear the funeral went well. Music is so instantly emotive.
I went to a neighbour's funeral and the music as the coffin disappeared behind the curtain was 'Whispering Grass' which made quite a few of us involuntarily burst out laughing. My neighbour had a good sense of humour.
Barnstaple is still on my spreadsheet, but 4 weeks away and I'm barely up to 5 miles I decided to leave it off the list for now.

WP - xpost. Sorry you had another bad night.
The Nimbus usually hold their price so if you see a bargain pair snap them up.
I also want to try the Cumulus.

WP, sorry if this is a stupid question, but are you getting your RHR from a watch, or are you measuring it manually? I know we are all different and this is no right or wrong, but I don’t think I know anyone whose RHR jumps around so much, so was just wondering if it’s a faulty/misreading watch. Again, apologies - you know your own body, but I was just wondering.

I know that question is not directed at me. I don't wear my watch except when running.
I manually take my RHR when I wake before getting out of bed, my RHR is consistently steady. If for any reason I sleep late and the alarm wakes me, that will give me a higher waking RHR as I've awoken with a start.

I just looked at my Garmin Connect and it has my resting HR as 78 today. That's because I only use the chest strap and put the watch on as I leave home for my run. Then I run and there's probably 5 minutes between finishing my run, stretching up and walking indoors when I take off the watch.
My actual RHR today was 53

Big G I take my RHR from my watch Fenix 6 which I wear all the time apart from when charging or showering.
All this bouncing up and down since having Covid.
The way I feel this morning I know it is right and have not run just a short walk.

From optical HRM on watch.
Strange how a RHR is different Shades.if mine said 53 it would be +13 
Maybe I should rest my watch and see if it makes a difference.
