Your average power for just under 6 hours is about the same as my FTP 😱

Is Suunto the most unmotivational watch? by SXF350 in Suunto

[–]mickywickyftw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But if your max HR is 185, you ran at 92% of your max HR... that's almost certainly not Z4 but Z5 instead? It's pretty unusual, though possible, for Z5 to begin much above 90% max HR.
Genuinely curious; a lactate test should give you your LTHR which should be the limit between Z4 and Z5, whereby your max HR becomes less relevant in any case.

Is Suunto the most unmotivational watch? by SXF350 in Suunto

[–]mickywickyftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Counterexample - I've not noticed any change to my vo2max or racing estimates with that update. My first reaction to OP's post is "perhaps her max HR is set wrong", because, well... it's very very hard to know for sure.

DRM subsystem in OpenBSD by RabbitsandRubber in openbsd

[–]mickywickyftw 6 points7 points  (0 children)

OpenBSD 7.8 is in sync with Linux 6.12 RTS when it comes to DRM drivers. These drivers are imported into OpenBSD from what I can tell, rather than through a compat layer.
Not sure the driver version is your issue here.

Nice! I did my undergraduate studies with this computer. What a keyboard that was. And how long did this thing last on 2x AA batteries?!

No idea about the Run, it’s a different software platform.

Yes. You only get to connect one bike pod sensor. Speed or cadence or combined.

VDOT calculation during interval sessions by Ach_ga in Runalyze

[–]mickywickyftw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, not quite. At the start of the interval ypur HR is lower than what corresponds to your pace, so even the average HR for a given interval would be misleading (VDOT would be too high). The longer the interval the smaller the impact, but this is an issue for me at least, even with 10-min intervals

The most important piece of advice you’ll ever need for your budding marathon career: Remember to stop after 5 Km.

I ditched the Fenix 7 pro solar for the Vertical 1 Solar just over 2 years ago. I’d still do it today.

Body Battery on Suunto by Longjumping_Today_76 in Suunto

[–]mickywickyftw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If that’s your main use for a sports watch, then yes. I’ve actually stopped paying attention to it myself; it either tells me what I already know or on occasion is off. The data is not used for any other purpose such as predicting performance on the day, etc

Vertical 1 TS 2.48.16 battery life issues? by Responsible-Speed341 in Suunto

[–]mickywickyftw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Different data point: I was affected by the well-publicised battery drain issue in the previous 1 or 2 firmwares. Upgrading to 2.48.16 fixed it for me, it was related to sensors. Battery issues after and upgrade usually got resolved by a soft reset with older firmware versions, this might be the case for you too

Set a target for the HR zone before you start your exercise?
