Yeah, that's where you're going wrong. That will be miles off your max. HR, hence your watch thinking you're in zone 4 when you're almost certainly not.
I could spend ages writing a PM... or you could take 5 seconds to perform a Google search.Got a Garmin fenix 5 and would appreciate a pm explaining HR etc and what it is I’m reading on the garmin/Strava app?
Cheers.

Amazing, well done! You planning to keep on running?
Been getting knee pain under my patella. Feels like it's going to give way especially going downhill. Did a Google search and it could be 'Runner' s Knee'. Seems like it's ligament damage and the only cure is rest. Bit pissed off about that as was going to go for light runs every day on my holiday. Anyone experienced Runner's Knee and can offer advice etc? Cheers.

Bit younger than you (51) but have played football, squash, badminton, running and cycling. Always doing some sport or another. I'll give the rose hip a go, thanks.I've had something similar. Mild pain in the knee when running. I'm 57 though, and have been playing footy all my life and still playing, so put mine down to wear and tear to the cartilage brought on by age. I've been taking rose hip supplements for about a week now. They are supposed to lubricate the joints, and I have noticed an improvement.

Are you speaking from experience?I think it’s quite common when your handbag is too heavy.
Yeah, you could have a break from running and concentrate on strength training and low-impact aerobic exercise such as swimming and/or cycling.Been getting knee pain under my patella.

Just finished my second 5k run in 31.42.
49 seconds quicker than Tuesday :-)
Didn't know this thread existed!
Started running this January, as I drunkenly signed up to the Baildon Boundaries half marathon, with my brother in law. Finished that race in just over 2 hours which I was really proud of (it's VERY hilly).
Was really happy with the results in terms of fitness and trimming my waistline. Looking to run a marathon later this year, just trying to convince family members to train for it with me. :)
I've got Sale Harriers near me. Might go down and see what the score is.Good luck with that mate, find a group near you and go with them, they'll be one around and have runners who are training for similar events. Best thing i ever did.
Well done mate, be catching me soon with improvements like that...........
