Today was my first time running with a heart rate monitor. Just for kicks, I set it up for me to run in zone 2. My pace was less than stellar, but better than I expected. However, I quickly learned that there is a fine line behind the high and low chirps. About halfway through I started trying to figure out what the chirps really meant. I decided that the low end chirp stood for, "Run, Fat Boy, you're not exercising!" and the high end chirp stood for, "Slow down, Fat Boy, your heart is about to explode!"
I'll continue to run with the heart rate monitor, but I'm going to turn the zone alarm off.
And for those of you wondering, the run was 50 minutes. It was good to get back to training.
