Thanks @mark – yep starting point was 152. I always run ‘high’ compared to others. Did 2 marathons and a 50km in a 10 day period a few weeks ago, heart rate was high compared to others throughout but PRE was consistently 2 or 3. I’ve been using UA programs for a few years and feel a I have a fairly strong aerobic base. Noted re Z1 instead of Z2 will give it a try. Thanks for your help.

Garmin Fenix 5 Threshold Value vs AeT calculated above

Guys – just wondering what the difference is between what garmin auto calculates and the method above?

Just completed my drift test and TP has emailed me a new Threshold Heart Rate Value of 158 up from 154.

Ran for hour on flattest course around my hilly area. Average heart rate for the hour was 159 (max 167, min 131) PA:Hr of 4.37% RPE for the run of 3.

So I use 159 as the upper limit of my Zone 2 now – correct?

Hi Mark – great to be a part of this. Can’t see the video of last night’s call yet?

One of my loves is weight lifting – just coming off a strength block now. Always have to reduce it as I ramp up for a mountain. DOMS and long runs aren’t good buddies for me.

Hi everyone – I’m in Great Malvern, England.

Heading for Denali in May 2022. And then my first 8000M peak in 2023 – probably Gasherbrum or Broad as I have a yearning to visit the Karakoram. Looking for an adventure between now and Denali if anyone has any good ideas.

Have climbed Mt Blanc, Mera, Elbrus alongside the UK stuff. Also spent time in the Alps and Pyrenees. Had trip to Spantik cancelled in May this year due to covid.
