Hi Paul, here's a question for you:

I've created with Runcoach, a plan to run a half-marathon in May. In that plan, each training session has a pace and heart rate limits. The problem is that, if I follow the heart rate limits, I'm able to respect the indicated pace only on the long run days. On the easy days I run slower than I should, and on the form days I run quicker...

Should I respect the pace, or the heart rate limits? Is Runcoach determining accurately the appropriate heart rate exertion?

Thanks for a great program! Alexandre
