All the traditional HR zone calculations aren't applicable to me, since as a 49yr old I still push near 200BPM, and run a half marathon at around 180BPM. But the Karvonen method has worked really well for me, since it's based on your Max HR, Resting HR and percentages of your reserve HR (difference between Max and resting). Now I no longer find HR training so soul crushing, since I use HR zones that are applicable to my own specific physiology, and as my fitness increases/decreases.

Interestingly, 220 - 47 = 173. I've never considered that formula to be reliable, but apparently it's not far off based on your test.

Awesome woman! Add the coma too. 😲, Just watching you I remembered the scorching sensation I feel when doing max rate. I deal with the remanentes of asthma so, you know... But damn, now I want to try it on a TM... And. Suggestion, if you haven't done it already, Cardio 2 test but with lactic acid and not HR.

Hi Tess. The temps in the uk dropped big time last week so I opted to rejoin a gym so as to be able to keep my Feb marathon training going and from past experience on a mill you can't kid yourself, you run fast or fall off the end !!. on tempo days and on long runs should you have a problem it's nice to have plan B at the touch of a button. Do I need to start knowing what my max heart rate is ? no sure but interesting watch all the same. Ian

That look hard - both physically and mentally - well done Tess! 💪
