Got my heart rate monitor tonight, and like any good triathlete, learned the
basics and out I went.
The verdict: I am back!! I'm sure the outdoors had something to do with it
as some had mentioned, and the HRM kept me in line...Now it was only a12
minute run, probably covered about 2k(have to drive it after), but the point
is the only time I stopped was to walk for about 10 seconds to get down from
175 to the 138-151 range I wanted to be in...
Thanks to all who made suggestions, they were all helpful.
One question: I have a polar with the chest transmitter(I guess they all
have them?)...is it good/bad/indifferent to wear it in the pool? only with
a wetsuit? Thanks.
