RE: My first foray into treadmill running with Garmin tracking my stats
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I will try that easy zone. I'm guessing that is zone 2 on a Garmin? That would mean for me that my heart rate needs to stay below 128... that seems extremely low. What is meant to be the benefit of this? I don't think I would be able to run at all if I had to keep my heart rate below that level. Just a faster walk

Depends how many runs you do per week. the theory is 80% should be really easy. I have found it useful to keep my easy runs slow and work on my running economy and efficiency. People have walked past me running zone 2 slow at parkrun !LOL
