[QUOTE="Commander Keen, post: 2839141, member: 9126"] If you don't mind me asking, what does your training schedule/millage look like for the Memorial? I fully credit the heart rate monitor with helping make the quick progress since I first started running last year (June? July?). I weekday runs I try doing at just below 80% max heart rate, regardless of what that pace is for that day. Without going into they physiology too much, this is pretty much the best level to build long-distance endurance according to various studies/articles I've read. Long runs are another matter, I try running those at a good 30 seconds or so slower than my goal race pace (which is always well below my 80% level), but it can be hard to make myself run that much slower than I'm used to. Most of the other stats I don't pay too much attention to all the time, but I have seen them move father into the "green" as my running has improved in various ways. [/QUOTE]
