Next time I'll just hold the watch close to it instead.

For many others, that's ludicrous. <br /><br />(122 is me walking around :))<br /><br />I'm glad you find the blog helpful!AKA Darkwave, AKA Anarcha, AKA Cris.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09873516028463495708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3415039431326089985.post-56585762318372017322011-04-08T04:57:30.338-07:002011-04-08T04:57:30.338-07:00Thanks so much for this blog.

Very useful info for those of us who've been forced to become pool runners (but have also come to recognize the benefits!) - My HR is also much lower in the pool than yours. I'm 43 - and I find that my HR at something approximating tempo pace is more like 122.Jonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3415039431326089985.post-61365374330522691582011-01-27T09:56:04.960-08:002011-01-27T09:56:04.960-08:00My HR is much lower in the pool than yours, my mon...My HR is much lower in the pool than yours, my monitor works in the pool. I know I'm older, not as elite as you, & my max HR is lower than yours, but my resting is 42 and that it makes me wonder. <br />@Elizabeth, it's so true, I'm definitely hungrier after pool running then regular running!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3415039431326089985.post-86700320459312845342011-01-25T18:50:42.544-08:002011-01-25T18:50:42.544-08:00Very useful information!

I have also heard, and found to be true, that you are hungrier after a pool workout due to the affects of the water temperature on your metabolism.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06265175590096078175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3415039431326089985.post-79846748018202258032011-01-25T11:25:16.272-08:002011-01-25T11:25:16.272-08:00WHOA!

In fact, I just wrote an article about cross-training, including lots of info about pool running, and I made note of the fact that getting your HR up to "running" levels is really hard to do in the pool.Juliehttp://raceslikeagirl.comnoreply@blogger.com
