Hi TheEd,
I use garmin forerunner305 for measuring distance/pace/hr.
Thanks,
Aistis

Thanks .. makes the variation in your easy runs pace and heart rate interesting reading, also mention whether you run over a slightly hilly or hilly course, as well, please?
can explain differences in pulse
Enjoy

Hi TheEd,
I do all my easy runs on the grass(70%)/trail(30%) route. It's slightly hilly (has got some steep short(50-100m) climbs).
Today for a change I did a 30min on flat tarmac: pace 5:29min/km, average HR 155bmp. It felt much faster/easier on the hard surface (but not so nice for the knees).
I noticed one interesting thing about my HR, it seems that when I have a rest day, the next day HR is usually higher, but just for that day. Also I find it harder to run on weekends because I sleep alot and sit around all day and then I don't feel so good on the run. I think this change in activity pattern also affects my HR.
Thank you,
Aistis

over compensation and adaptation
the body knows when to look after itself
we must simply give it a chance to look after itself and to train it thoughtfully
I know over simplifying
enjoy the week

What pace for 1000s should I try tomorrow?
Build-up for 10k race and HR advice - TheEd - 28-04-2009
1000's normally 10 seconds per km quicker than the 2000m pace
so this should take you towards around 4 minutes per k to slightly quicker say 3.55 as top speed
you should find the session a great deal easier than the 2000's however the idea is to set the program routine in motion

Hello TheEd,
After two days on tarmac I started feeling a slight niggle in my left knee (the weak one), so I decided to do 1000s on grass today.
Legs felt really good. Laps:
Lap___Time____Avg HR(max)__Rec Min HR(avg)
1_____3:48_____182(189)______145(166)
2_____3:42_____184(194)______147(173)
3_____3:43_____187(197)______157(178)
4_____3:46_____190(197)______158(181)
5_____3:46_____192(199)______171(184)
6_____3:43_____193(199)______167(185)
Average lap: 3:45 min/km
I know I probably went too fast, but I could not pace myself properly on the grass (therefore last 500ms of the last two reps were quite hard effort, but not flat out).. The HR graph is attached.
Thanks,
Aistis
