When I initially set it up, it calculated the range for me. I have always had a heart rate that is on the higher side. I'll have to Google to see if I can find some better info.<br /><br />My training plan now is: run when you can until you can't. Not such a good plan, but it seems to be working. Although lately, my calves have been really sore, so I have been walking briskly like you.Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06203558873259694566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5919294293261607377.post-37024650150799262482011-04-07T19:48:28.817-04:002011-04-07T19:48:28.817-04:00What is your HRM set to?

When I "run" (more like a really brisk walk), I tend to get up in the 160s or higher. There are charts out there that tell you your ideal HR based on your age.<br /><br />What kind of training plan are you using? I recommend Couch to 5k (there is a 10k version too) because it gradually increases your running over the course of 8 weeks I think. I have never personally completed it, but it's on my to do list. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
