    Can i check something with the judge & jury please, I've 2 routes selected but i'm not sure about the elevation, Garmin doesn't seem to agree with Strava :confused: They're both point to point. Are either of these acceptable?

    Route 1: Garmin +3.5m / -4.5m. Strava +1ft.

    Route 2: Garmin +5.8m / -4.8m. Strava -23ft

    Statler & Waldorf will forever be Ferris B and FBOT01. These two are more Lloyd and Harry!!

    Haha.....Lloyd and Harry fits well.

    IMO

    Don't overthink it, if it looks fair and you're not extracting the proverbial, go for whichever one suits.

    I liked the sense check a few pages ago, if you can honestly say from a gradient perspective that you wouldn't care which direction you ran it (i.e. A to B or B to A) then it's fine.

    Hi

    Do you not have an average pace function on your watch. Always worked for me always told me I started to fast and always told me I was bombed at the end :)

    TbL

    No avg pace. Use Actual Heart rate as your only field. Your goal is to hit your max heart rate, ideally after the first 800 :D If you feel pain and look at it and its not max with 400 to go, you are not working hard enough :eek::D


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,438 ✭✭✭✭Murph_D


    +1 to above.

    Also I’d favour the Garmin elevation stats. I like strava but not its penchant for reprocessing data unnecessarily.

    Not that it’s my call, but most of us are using Garmin devices for distance/time so that’s what I’ll be using to measure course elevation too. If you’re really pernicketty you could get a third opinion from google earth.

    If you have the wherewithal to look at your watch at all you’re not working hard enough!

    Thanks.

    Good point about the sense test - i missed that.

    I'm going to jump in without consulting Lloyd here. In all honesty it's just a matter of don't take the piss. Wouldn't worry ariana.

    More to do with previous TT - do people have a best performance strategy for 5km pacing for 18/19 min range - slightly positive or negative split or even? Have found my fastest have included a way too fast 1st km but been able to cling on but have also had bad results from that strategy!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,447 ✭✭✭FBOT01


    Go on so stick me in. If nothing else I will help make up the numbers. After 5 weeks off it won't be pretty but will aim for 05:42 and see how we go. Age Cat is M50.

    While I am hear can I request that you either delist Duanington or get him to give you his mile target rather than his tempo pace :p

    Oh there are a few more than him... there's even one predicted time in there that is over 10 seconds slower than the last mile of a few recent longer TTs :pac::pac:

    To be fair I did call him on it, but the powers that be running this TT don’t like others having fun, all about the rules here!!!!!
