Hey ed!
I did the long run today.
21km, 1:37:21, 4:38/km avg.
I averaged 164bpm according to my garmin but I think it was a little lower since it went a little crazy and started recording >190bpm values when I was running at 5min/km pace and a max of 221bpm when I was at 4:40/km, which is obviously not true. It lasted for about 2km. I removed the strap while running and got very weird looks from other runners when licking it, but it fixed the problem.
I tried to stay under 155bpm for the first 10km, pushed a little more for the last 11km, and while it didn't feel very hard I realize 4:38/km is probably too hard for my long runs and will try to keep it slower for the next ones.
cheers
