I had 6 days of running that week and Wednesday was my only day off. <br /><br />I reset the HR zones in my watch. Did you use the same percentages (93-100% for Zone 5) as in the article? Garmin Connect is saying something different.<br /><br />Glad group running is going well for you. <br /><br />Summer running is not the best but right now I am enjoying having the chance to get out there.

It's been a long time since I've run on it. It was even sweaty in my basement. I can just imagine how it would have been outside. I always get nervous about group runs. So far, none have turned out bad!TechChickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11960422420943812763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2862780880843779940.post-7873860367254606242020-07-06T09:58:14.130-04:002020-07-06T09:58:14.130-04:00Isn't it amazing how running with friends can ...Isn't it amazing how running with friends can make the miles fly by? I loved reading about your Tuesday run. So funny that you got last place in the race but first place in your age group! There have been a few races where I was the only woman in my age group so I got 1st place by default, but I figured I beat everyone on the couch, right?Meditations in Motionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08406003928113822953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2862780880843779940.post-24072185624749551122020-07-06T08:32:00.050-04:002020-07-06T08:32:00.050-04:00Summer is THE BEST time to embrace HR training bec...Summer is THE BEST time to embrace HR training because the heat is soul sucking.

I usually give myself a break on the treadmill once in awhile in the summer, but this year I've tried to stay outside. I guess I just really need all the time outside that i can get.Lisa @ Mile by Milehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12739298325369206085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2862780880843779940.post-72005369591201350742020-07-05T21:29:40.523-04:002020-07-05T21:29:40.523-04:00The heat is tough isn't it...but you're do...The heat is tough isn't it...but you're doing great!

I love race medals and I think they each tell a story so they are all special.<br /><br />I haven't tried heart rate training for running but I think it's something I would like to try. I do wear a heart rate monitor for my OTF classes and it's always good to see the different zones I'm in during class.
