I currently use a Garmin 920xt. I was a long time polar user but I'm somewhat happy with the switch. My max hr is much higher, about 205 running, 15 less than that riding. I like using a hrm for...

My RS400 and CS400 have been sitting in my closet for about a year since I replaced them with the RCX5 (which has now been replaced by a Garmin and is up for sale as well). These two computers were...
Black watch, GPS unit with clip and armband, foot pod with holder, bike speed and cadence sensors, and bike mount for the watch. Also includes boxes, manuals, data transfer unit, and heart rate strap...
I've been perusing craigslist for a trainer for a couple of months now, but holding off until after Christmas in case anyone got a new one as a gift and was trying to unload their old one. Two days...
Ha! I can totally understand that! I only took up running to cross train for cycling but now that I'm looking at duathlons I've had to get more into it. I find running in the hot humidity awful! In...
If you want to increase your distance you'll likely need to slow down. I train in zone 3 on my heart rate monitor as I'm building up to 10k, which means i am only training at an 11 min mile or...
I absolutely hated the spin bikes in basic!
Wild Goose Chase is a women's riding event out here on the Eastern Shore. Maybe an hour drive from the Cape May - Lewes ferry. ...
I'm 5'4" (well, 5' 3.75")and I just got a Felt F85X in November. I swapped the stem and got a handlebar with a shorter reach and now it fits great. I got a 51 and it comes smaller than that, so there...
Hmmm no kids but I could picture my cat trying to stick his paw through the spokes...that's something to consider...
On my phone (android) I can have several bluetooth devices connected at a time. At least, I can sync my fitbit while streaming music to speakers and sending pictures to my computer, that sort of...
Do you specifically need a "woman's fit" shoe? It looks like these shoes are marketed as unisex and you should just go by the size chart. I don't BMX so I can't be much help beyond that.
The Monster Cross looks really fun! 50 miles sounds intimidating but I know I could handle the 21 miler. Our wedding anniversary is that Saturday but maybe we could turn it into a weekend getaway and...
Holy cow! 15? Are they expensive? How early in the year do they usually start? I ask because right now I am focusing more on my running and duathlon training and don't plan to start really doing any...
I know this is an old thread but along the same lines, would it be okay to use a non-disc wheel for the trainer? I know I wouldn't be able to stop but that's not a big deal I suppose. Then I could...
I will be new to duathlons this year as well. I have perused several training plans but really am doing my own for now.
Right now I am in base training mode, where I am working on each component...
How scary! Wishing you the best...
Personally I use a heart rate monitor, although I don't have a power meter so it doesn't have all of the metrics for really, really close accuracy, but it still makes it easier. My recommendation...
I have not done a race yet but have a feeling I will feel the same way next year. I am hoping to do a race or two this upcoming fall. There aren't any near me normally so that will mean some...
Hey, coastie! I was PATFORSWA shoreside 09-10. Its nice to "run into" a fellow Coastie. Sorry about your health but congrats on your remission!
EDIT to add: Not to be weird, but I noticed your...
I did much better in my NY Eve 5k than I anticipated, finishing 4 minutes faster than the goal I set for myself and earning me 2nd place for females in my age group. It was really motivating! It was...
I'm not interested in buying anything right now, I just have a few questions that others looking at it might have. Do you know the weight? What are the frame and fork made of? Also, is it designed to...
I got two early Christmas presents from DH: 2 race registrations for 2015. They are both sprint duo's - the first being 1.5/10/3.1 miles and the second 2/19.5/3.3 miles. I'm really looking forward to...
Is anyone here doing one? I just signed up for a New Years Eve 5k. I figured its a good way to end 2014 and start 2015. :D
Wow! Great article and great website. Thanks for sharing :)
Definitely Rudolph. Although Frosty is not that bad in animation (every costume snowman or gingerbread man is scary as all heck though)
