Ability for conversation without interruptions for gasp. Yes or No. HR, which not always indicates state of "conversation pace". Especially during busy weeks. Cadence once in a while just to make sure that it's still around 180spm. Since it's not the first time GTN emphasizes, will use sleep time for busy weeks and for any weeks only when you release GTN pajamas in soft colors with matching sleep eye masks :) 5:28
Favorites are: LAP pace (per mile - better than 'instant' pace which fluctuates), heart rate (especially for hills or very windy days - pace hard to gauge! Also good for Zone 2 runs), cadence (was 150 - worked up to 170's over a couple years). Also L-R ground time balance - trying to keep even stride (I favor R foot on hills! go figure). For races I also use time 'alerts' on Garmin for fuel - 'eat' every 30 mins for gels, drink every mile or 15 mins 💪
I've been running to power using a Stryd footpod over the last year. I have found my running has improved dramatically compared to heart rate or pace based plans I previously used.
I trained for my first triathlon, Ironman Hamburg, all the way without any watch or bike computer. I also did the race with no tracking except a mechanical wristwatch. For me this was a personal challenge to see that I knew my body well enough to pace such a long effort without any heartrate, pace or watt inputs. I think when starting out its really good to learn your body and going by feel first. I would check the lenght of my routes and calculate my average speed after my runs and bikerides, and keep a log in a notebook. After IM Hamburg I bought a Wahoo ELEMNT Rival watch and super happy with it. Now I am getting a bit nerdy looking over the stats after my sessions. 😅
I track my pace, of course, but the numbers I really care about are my cadence and heart rate. As long as the first one is high and the second one is low, I'm not usually too bothered about pace.
Great video. I use stride length at a certain pace with a certain spm at flat terrain to see if I get fitter and stronger. My stride length increases a lot when I get fitter and stronger. I also do the hrv test from time to time to see if I am still fit and not overtrained.
Time and distance. If I cover the same amount of ground in less time than before, or more ground in the same amount of time as before, I'm going faster. Same thing when I'm on the bike. Obviously, I'm not one to obsess over metrics, perhaps to my detriment, but I'm OK with it, which is what matters. Hopefully others out there will be able to use the advice in this video to help them achieve their goals.
monitoring PACE - you should tell people it is not like in a car. Current pace via gps watch isn't accurate. Monitoring it could be frustrating, especially when you run during cloudy days or in the forrest. It's better to monitor lap pace. It's more reliable.
I track my heart rate. I have a Garmin pro HR monitor plus Fenix 6 watch. I however still train and race with how my body feels and numbers are just secondary. I do see that my fitness is getting better though. Cheers
Very informative and outstanding video your running skills are just amazing 👏👍The most important metric is POWER! It solves for all of the issues you highlighted with elevation change and HR lag and change.👍
I train for sprint triathlons and 5ks if you had a choice , longer stride with slower cadence ? or shorter stride with faster cadence ? I did both, 2nd one was faster , little more on the hamstrings , but I think if I stick with #2 will be faster off the bike .
What metrics do you use when running? Maybe you run with no metrics at all!? Share your thoughts and experiences with us 👇

Buy a bike and take a pool subscription mate !

Low heart rate training was what got me back into physical activity since Covid. Two years later I’m more focused on tempo runs and weekly volume.

It’s like learning to do math without a calculator, that’s how we all had to do it up to the last 5-8 years ago. 😄

I think that when you are tired, it's even more important to watch the cadence and reduce stride length to ease it up.
Amazing running 🏃♂️ 👏 ❤
