Thank you! !LUV

It is a road marathon. And to be honest, Hive account@marenontherun (btw, is your name "Maren"?) I won't mind if I have to swap it out for a short trail ultra or a trail marathon because, let's face it, I like trails better. It's just a convenient, seemingly achievable goal that I know my partner can also happily get onboard with.

My pulse zones may not be correct. As soon as I can find the motivation, I'm going to test what my actual max heart rate is (as opposed to the standard Max HR = 220 - my age) and see if they need adjusting. The other thing is, I don't run with a chest strap; it's my watch that's recording my heart rate and watches can be notoriously incorrect. So I think I need to take note of my PRE (perceived rate of effort) more so on each run than rely on my tech to tell me what my body is doing.
