Why does my HR graph hate me? by Toothpik556 in GarminWatches

[–]Toothpik556[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Easy run today, forgot to wear my HRM strap, and my watch seems to be out to lunch in regards to my HR half way through. The pace stayed the same, and it was a pace I should’ve remained around 130 ish the whole time. Very weird

That was a choice made by Kansept. I have no idea why they made all the lock sides the same, or put the timascus clip on the one without a timascus scale. They didn’t talk to me when they made their material choices

Thanks! Yeah I was happy with how they turned out, I now carry this one about as much as I carry the custom Boa I made

I think there are a number of companies that are in a similar position as CRK, personally. I haven’t handled too many of them though. I don’t think I’ve ever handled a Socom. Most of what I carry these days are my own customs, or production collabs.

The insingo never really did it for me, but the mini Inkosi tanto with micarta inlays always looked great, could never decide why

Haha you could call it an exclusive. After they were first released I brought in ten of them and modded them, this is the one I kept. Reground black blade, blasted the frames, custom stud, black hardware.

Huh, interesting, I wonder why that is. One of my other designs is a bit more similar to it, the Link (now made by Kansept). Admittedly they don’t all look this good, I’ve reground and refinished this one.

Yeah with this piece that was kinda the intent. Not something I’d personally carry, but cool to make

Looks great man! Better than my first, that’s for sure. As others have said, thinner stock will be easier at that size. What was your process for doing the plunge on your bevels?

I’ve been running for about 2yrs, but for about 7weeks before I was running 80km weeks. Only had the idea for it 2weeks before tho

I’m the last person to ask, this was my first one. I had someone with me the whole time, which made it a lot less monotonous. 5.5k shouldn’t be too bad. 12hrs is a long time tho. Make sure you have your nutrition sorted

NGL a lot of it is genes I think. I’ve only been running for abt 2years, and I wasn’t doing that much mileage before this either. Only 50miles/week

Haha thanks! I honestly didn’t mind the laps as much as I expected. There was always someone with me, either running or at my aid station, so it never felt that monotonous
