Mile race. MaxHR 193bpm. Average 188bpm so that's 97% WHR.

No PB though. Sorry Beer Matt.

You can't say you gave it 100% though can you?

Sorry. 97% average is a fearsome effort. Nice.

How about I only beat myself up about it for the next hour and then get over it? Is that a good compromise?

Thanks Gobi, I can rarely be faulted on effort I must admit.

No Peacey, matched the Max I had before.

I was going to say that myself Hendo but *someone* just told me off for being negative.

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
