My heart rate monitor has arrived. Wow, it's nifty. I didn't realize from the pictures that the strap would be so comfortable. It's almost like not wearing anything. And it fits with room to spare.

My trainer is going to have me do the testing to determine the heart rate zones at my session next week. He said it's much better if he supervises so that he can really push me. Somehow, I suspect it may not be so fun.

In the meantime, I'm having fun with my new gadget. It's not as tough to use as I thought it would be.
