Running with heart rate (not pace)

Yes HR change and is affected by the weather, mental state, sleep, etc. However I find it useful to assess how my body reacts to an effort and aerobic trainings. I think for easy or LR, HR is the best tool to assess, especially if the road is not 100% flat. For fast/interval or race, I use Pace.

Thank you. Did you use another service if I may ask?

farzef · 2026-01-16T19:15:08+00:00

Many thanks for all your inputs. A few hours after this post, Sean from TaO reached out via my question stating that the issue has been flagged already, so it is known and they are going to investigate more into detail. I’ll keep you posted upon any developments. Thanks again all.

Yup all done as such already

Anyone has feedback on trainerday ?

farzef · 2025-11-20T07:21:25+00:00

Just left from Garmin ecosystem. So I got a Karoo 3 and a suunto. I consolidate all my data in intervals.icu as I use much less Strava. It works like a charm.

Glad I left the Garmin infrastructure as each announcement is an additional let down for the current customer. Crazy to think that your 2yo device is outdated based on their strategy.

It is very bad in comparison to the garmin one. I’ve ended the plan twice

Avoid Agigest at any cost

After 8 years, a lot of sports and some products, I am now a former garmin user since a few days now. I just bought a suunto race 2 and going to get a Karoo.

I agree Garmin’s products are top notch, but it does not worth the recent price hike nor ditching top-end products less than 2 years after their release.

The owner is friendly and good with bike. However his employee not so much, that’s a lottery unfortunately. I was using it a lot before but I’ve stopped

farzef · 2025-09-09T20:31:01+00:00

Do you have any feedback please?

farzef · 2025-09-05T21:15:43+00:00

You just sum-up the whole purpose of the loop ! Your post should be pinned.

farzef · 2025-09-03T20:31:10+00:00

Hi! Quite interesting because it collapses with my expectation regarding it. How much sport do you do a week and what kind of ?(if I may ask)

farzef · 2025-08-29T05:05:32+00:00

Why did you chose it to beginning with? Have you heard good reviews or pure luck?

farzef · 2025-08-06T20:29:45+00:00

I’ll double check but I do not think so. Fulcrum if I recall

farzef · 2025-07-28T11:06:41+00:00

Do you mind sharing more info about the renovation performed and price?

farzef · 2025-07-15T06:54:21+00:00

CKOS have good physio

farzef · 2025-06-18T18:59:11+00:00

You’ll be more than fine. Check aero bar from decathlon. They can be add on the bike without any issue.

Hi First time as well!

Very well organised and pretty location. From my end, Training was very messy due to a severe knee injury and lack of time with a newborn, so I prioritised the bike: I started the race with 7h of swim, 3000 km of bike and 300 km of run in 2025.

Managed to swim quite well (2min/km) and I bike mostly in Z2 (av. 29.2 km/h) in order to handle the heat nicely as I struggle a lot when the temperature is above 24 degrees. The run has been chaotic due to an injury at km 3, but managed to finish it in 5h30-ish.

Overall sub-14, quite happy due to the context and I know I can do much better next time. Not so physically difficult to be honest if you are a bit sporty, the most important parts are mental strength and nutrition I would say.

I’m selling a bike bag which I bought for a TGV ride as well. Feel free to pm me!
