As I don't wear my glasses I can't read the pace readings anyway. As for the HR, I don't pay too much attention to it in the race. Mainly in the first 5 - 10k to make sure I don't go too fast. Once I'm in a groove it doesn't serve much purpose. The main reason I wear it is so I can analyse things after the race which I find helpful. Especially when you can compare it with previous trainings and races. So if you are worried that it will play with your mind then just don't look at the readings.

I'm not so sure...I don't know what a pedometer is.<br /><br />I'm not so sure about the HRM. It could be useful to control the early pace, but maybe get rid of it after 10k.<br /><br />On the other hand, when you are fully tapered and rested, you might actually have to run at a lower HR than usual for a given pace, which could muck up your pacing (you could go out 'too fast').Ewenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01093209634556111656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15317841.post-23035329474070216922006-11-18T15:32:00.000+09:002006-11-18T15:32:00.000+09:00Hi Stephen
