Ooh ok. Nice. Maybe I should try it. What should be the optimal heart rate for long distance? I think im ready.

I think that has been my problem thar I've purposely been jacking up my heart rate and being on the higher zones. I think that is what prevented me from trying out longer distance. Ive mainly been working on improving my times.
I keep trying to reply, would help if I was logged in with the right keys! 🙄
Anyhow, I think that is unique for everyone. For example, my HR never goes past 180-ish, even during really intense exercise, but my resting HR is low, like 40 on average 🤷
I think the general rule is, if you can comfortably hold a conversation (four word sentences), you're probably running at a good speed.

That helps, thanks! :)
