I don't have a HRM. At my doc's, my RHR is 62. I go by perceived exertion. I am in OK shape (have been exercising on and off for 2 years), but have been running consistently at least every other day from Feb to May 7 with Cardiocoach. (Now I have a sprained ankle, not due to running). I saw dramatic improvements in my speed within a month. Anyways, my levels for Vol. 1 are:
Level 1: 4-4.5mph, level 2: 5.5 mph, Level 3: 7.5-7.8 mph. I was thinking I may be below my THR, but after reading your post, I am not sure anymore. Also, I recently changed the running mat and don't know if it displays correct numbers. But on a relative comparison, I seem to have improved. Unless my treadmill is really off, I am a little surprised with the numbers you have posted.I will post once I get an HRM (and if my foot heals one of these days).
