Morning all Foxy - glad your feeling O.K after last night. This is how I work out my HR hope it is correct Recovery 60% - 200 - 49 * 60% + 49 = 140 Long run 60 - 70% as above and 200 - 49 * 70% + 49 = 155 between 140 - 155 Undualiting & intervals 70 % - 85 % between 155 & 177 Tempo 85 % = 177. For my long runs I usually…
There you go DC, more proof that you are my hero....................most men would go to bed with man-flu, not run 4 miles! Yes, it's Brighton for me, the week before London. In fact it's being billed as 'London by the Sea' Bats i have done a 155 bpm one for running but it is a bit too slow. Although after i'd done my…
Evening all Been out for a really terrible 6 miler could not get into a good place at all, guess this happens from time to time. So looking forward to Sunday's run. Anybody racing this weekend - Good luck Saltpot on your HM is that all of us? Take care all. JuliaT - My average Hr in January was 155 my last few runs…
Julia T wrote (see) Bats i have done a 155 bpm one for running but it is a bit too slow. Although after i'd done my intervals it did stop me from walking................. well, i've got a year to build up the running and cut the walking out. i think something that shocks me if i drop below a certain pace would be good…
Hummo my work place is lovely, Curves, a ladies only gym. Everyone is so nice and loads of the ladies sponsored me, £400+ and counting for Little Havens Childrens Hospice. Foxy hope you feel better soon too. Let's hope we all get into the parks then we can have a gulp team photo there or summat! Darren, Average HR 155, max…
Afternoon Friendly Gulpers- there are a couple of scary threads out there at the moment, think we're just too nice for trolls to butt in! They probably just lurk instead . I ran today. Last night I downloaded the HR Garmin HM plan and it said 3 miles steady (HR 146-156) which fits with HR book which said I should be…
Darren- wow!!!! Awesome moment. I can walk again! Recovery run helped and then cycled to sports massage today and after immense agony, she has fixed me. Ouch at the time though. FE- love the designer trainers- photo when they arrive please. Have been adding up trainer mileage and realised one pair are on their last legs…
B&T - I am liking the sound of these flat country roads! Bath had some testing little slopes (which felt like hills by the end). I too like the sound of a Team Gulp 11MM pacing group. And there's always the additional options of a pre-race Team Gulp pasta party and a post-race Team Gulp sauna evening at Chez WM to consider…
Morning everyone. Well FE- I did as you prescribed and got out for some active recovery running. According to the HR guru bloke I should be keeping my HR below 155 for this. My HR always goes sky high initially so the first .75 mile was more of a run/walk to keep the rate down which was probably a good warm-up; thereafter…
Hi all, did a speedy 5k run this morning to get the legs going in preparation for our 10-miler tomorrow. Glad you feel so chirpy Foxy after your disappointment, athough the snow is a pig for disrupting the schedule it really is beautiful isn't it Darren, your HR sums seem good to me, I have my max HR in as 185 which is the…
