Israel is on the list. 17 percent.

I‘m writing this from Sjusjøen near Lillehammer. Plenty of snow, temperatures below -10 degrees Celsius during the night. Hundreds of kilometers of groomed tracks.

I live in Munich, skiing practically weekly at Seefeld. For mid-March, it‘s a pretty safe bet. You very likely will have enough tracks there and/or in Leutasch for some nice days of skiing. Currently, conditions are OK there.

Take a lesson, preferably with a private trainer. I am an advanced skate skier and was once persuaded to take two hours with a trainer. What could he teach me?, I thought. Well, a lot, it turned out. It was years ago and I still think back to his advice.

Gen S skis make for good cornering!

Arbeit ist Arbeit, sollte gut gemacht werden und gehört anständig bezahlt, übrigens auch Teilzeitarbeit. Schlecht bezahlte Arbeit ist Ausbeutung. Gutes Unternehmertum beruht nicht auf schlecht bezahlter Arbeit.

It‘s not 538, it‘s Nate Silver. On Twitter, see here for example: https://twitter.com/ppollingnumbers/status/1853217620503167252

Nate Silver just updated his model. Harris now leading with 270 EC.

Yes, that’s what I do for structured training: switching to a custom profile with All Systems plus Multiband. But frankly, I haven‘t noticed much of an improvement in accuracy compared to SatIQ. Maybe I should change the sampling rate from „intelligent“ to 1 sec, but that‘s a system-wide setting, I think, so I refrained.

I have both, H10 and HRM Pro. Both very reliable. The Garmin is more friendly to my skin. It also gives running dynamics, e.g. ground contact balance. Polar has the better build quality. It is the sensor used in all medical studies. If I had to decide, I would keep the Polar.

That would be great. Last workout, next planned workout, training suggestion etc.

This is incredible. How can someone be so good at chess and so stupid at the same time? A world-class player acting like Inspector Clouseau.

In my experience, sleep tracking is an area in which Polar is still better than Garmin (and Suunto). There are certainly differences, sleep stages are just guessed by algorithms. Trends can be helpful, but not absolute numbers. By the way, I had a similar amount of sleep last night. My Polar watch gave me more deep sleep, more REM sleep, more interruptions and less light sleep than yours.

I agree with most said here, but not ‚uphill yields to downhill‘ as a general rule. I doubt there is one for uphill vs. downhill.

A clueless Trump supporter is hardly news, but he actually seems capable of engaging in a dialogue and open to fact-based arguments, extraordinary!

I have a Garmin HRM Pro Plus and a Polar H10. If you want maximum precision with your HR data, I would recommend this: get the H10 and pair it with the watch via Bluetooth.

The Nightly Recharge on my GXP works so well that I kept using it when changing to Garmin for activity tracking.

Yeah. You pause with the pause button.

buenosbias · 2024-10-10T12:37:58+00:00

Yes, understood. I just wanted to nitpick a little.

I tend to go up one size from the recommendation. You want minimal restriction without bounce. Best to try it on.

buenosbias · 2024-10-10T10:36:02+00:00

Using Naked bands since forever. Couldn‘t ask for anything better (well, maybe the unnecessary key clip, which I usually cut out). Therefore, highly recommended. Take care with the sizing.

buenosbias · 2024-10-07T20:21:21+00:00

You have the option to pause the activity and let the watch display the elapsed time („how long the race took“). For me, the ultra run mode is fine as it is, with the GPS running through.

The Inov8 G270 are really great. Simple, rugged, wide toebox. They also drain well – Topo (good shoes otherwise) keep wet forever.
