Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

page 6 "laws of running"
point 9 "speed kills endurance;endurance kills speed"
I remain at a bit of a cross roads running wise having done so much LSR training for the past 3 months and have felt a lot fitter remained pretty much injury free by playing safe and having completed my first marathon am thinking what next? My sense is that my speed has fallen back and i want to move to a more balanced approach with a couple of fast sessions per week to use my improved stamina to convert to better 5k and 10k race times. Quite how I transition I do not know but I will start with 400m intervals at 5k pace (c.6min/mile) on one day per week and leave the remaining training steady and see over time what happens. If I do not get enough improvement I will have to apply more stress and do a hard tempo 5 miler at HM pace as well.

I am happy to report back how this goes over the next month.

Question: For RHR do you use the consistent low reading or the lowest e.g. tested today and it was consistently 50-52bpm but lowest recording was 48bpm....?

FR, the lowest consistently recorded one. I get the lowest consistent one just before I go to sleep at night.

Lizzie, base as G says is always good :-)

Good evening Gentlefolk. I had a go at keeping to sub 70% WHR (147bpm) this evening, and it felt good to be going at *my* pace :-) It was the flattest possible course.
I promise I was "running" not "walking"! I did take a few tiny walking breaks on updulates to ease the HR back down (it recovers quickly).

Split Summary

====

1) - 1m - 13:13(13:13/m) - 134bpm avge - 150bpm max - 95cal

2) - 1m - 12:53(12:53/m) - 145bpm avge - 154bpm max - 101cal

3) - 1m - 14:02(14:02/m) - 145bpm avge - 152bpm max - 89cal

4) - 0.95m - 13:37(14:20/m) - 146bpm avge - 153bpm max - 85cal

Heart Rate Zone Summary

====

HR Zone: 53-147bpm (Sub 70%): 67.7%

HR Zone: 147-154bpm (71-75%): 32%

HR Zone: 154-160bpm (76-80%): 0.3%

About This Thread

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
