Monday #sculling on the Wear. A cooler bright morning for a paddle. It's looking like another decent week although we really need some rain. The drizzle for a few hours past week has perked up the grass a little. The river is soup, didn't stop the swimmer just upstream from the club house this morning.

Sunday mostly easy run with Coxhoe on the run. The red line was an attempt to better my time on the Strava segment escape to Cornforth, missed by a second a combination of going off too fast, tired legs and the beer at the station house last night probably didn't help. Lovely run and we are all set for our now regular pie and peas on Wednesday.

And also on holiday another fun-run done! Only this one contains more EG than any of my previous runs of this year at home 😅. But really spectacular course, the Dahner Felsen Pfad. A 12k route along several rock formations (Felsen) in peculiar shapes. It was still warm today so I was glad that a large part of the course was in the forest. But returning to the campsite I plunged into the lake immediately. All together it was 18k and nearly 500m EG.

Durham parkrun as a fine drizzle sets in cooling everything down. No sandwich this morning, legs still tired from Thursday. A pretty decent effort at 23:39 and a celebration at the end for one of the groups 300th.

Checking out the area around our campsite, very beautiful and sometimes challenging terrain! This is great trailing terrain 😁.

Recovery #scullimg session on the Wear on a cool grey morning. No real effort, just focussed on technique and keeping out of the weeds. Managed right up until the end when I wrapped loads of weed around my left blad navigating into the landing. The weight made it almost impossible to lift the blades off the water and keep the boat balance. Great fun.

My new watch just arrived. Stoked to get it set up. 🤸♂️
Open the box, don't see a USB cable, so I figure Garmin's reducing e-waste. Good stuff.
But I soon find the cable tucked in a little compartment. Okay, not eco, but fine.
Then I go to plug in the watch and discover it's a cuntfuckingshitass PROPRIETARY fucking connector. You know, those pieces of shit that the EU banned.
Way to piss on my excitement, Garmin. Fuck you. 🖕 :heta:

Durham city 10km on a warm evening, pretty happy with 47:19 chip time, the hills seem just a little tougher every year but they are a great way to stretch out the field in the first 3km then finish us off in the last 1.5km with the run up to the cathedral.

On Garmin and Coros
Reading Time: 4 minutesIt’s easy to fall into the trap of looking at expensive Garmin watches and thinking that maps are a premium feature, when, in fact they are not. Suunto and Coros offer them on affordable devices, should you require that feature for trail running, hiking, and more.
If you want to use the Coros Nomad for navigation while cycling then it’s bad. I tested it when cycling from Morges to Cossonay a few weeks ago. The problem is that it tells you “straight ahead” or turn left, but not in a cycling/driving context, so it’s unreliable for that.
For running the Garmin Forerunner 570 map is just a line so you see that there is a bend soon, and then you see if you turned in the right place, but without sufficient context. A right navigation is confirmed by you still being on the line, rather than via context.
Having said this, hiking towards Leukerbad, using the Forerunner 570 worked well. I was able to intuit the right direction from the GPS, even in deep valleys on steep slopes heading towards Leukerbad. I would trust it, if I was walking solo, rather than a hike organised by someone else.
If you’re running with a group, either Décathlon or other, if they provide the planned course ahead of time, we can download and follow the route on the Nomad with great ease. It shows you the streets, the buildings, roundabouts and more, so you know ahead of time where to turn. The nomad is larger than the Pace 3. The pace 3 is suited to everyday wear and the Nomad is better when you’re hiking and trail running, if you know the course ahead of time.
Sleeping, HRV and Battery
My reason for switching from the Instinct to the Instinct 2, was to get more data, and because I noticed that the battery was lasting a shorter amount of time. My reason for switching from the Instinct 2 to the Forerunner 570 was because I wanted better features, and to see if it tracked sleep better.
After several months of using the Forerunner 570, and Garmin in general I came to the conlusion that it is deeply pessimistic, from a few points of view. The first is that it’s bad at tracking sleep if you wake during the night, either for relief, or because of summer heat, or other reasons.
More than once during the Canicule (heat wave) the watch has said that I had an awful night of sleep, that my HRV is low and that my training readiness is low. In other words it was telling me to hibernate.
The problem with Garmin is that it wants sleep to be excellent for the battery status to be great, and it wants HRV to be within a certain range. If any of these are out of range, then it gives a gloomy preparedness status.
Heat Acclimation
I noticed that getting heat acclimation to one hundred percent was very easy, but that it also dropped very fast if you don’t keep working out. I think the feature is interesting but dangerous. It’s interesting to have such a metric because it’s another goal to aim for. It’s dangerous because we shouldn’t be encouraged to acclimate to heat during a heatwave.
It should also look at sleeping environment, having said that. I’m sleeping in an environment at 30°c and yet heat acclimation doesn’t take into account that my sleeping environment is much warmer than the outside air, especially when there is a refreshing breeze.
Coros Minimalism
I like Coros, first because it’s affordable, but also because it’s less bloated. Garmin has added so many bells and whistles that you tend to look at the app all the time, to see how you slept, how your body battery is doing, and more. With Coros you do a workout. It tells you “It will take 43 hours to recover, and that’s when the countdown to recovery begins, without looking at HRV and sleep.
We have seen that Coros, Garmin, Apple and more are designed for young people who sleep from 2200-0600 or so, in a single burst. As soon as you’re a bit older sleep is more broken up so Apple, Garmin, Suunto and Coros say “You slept like crap” but we just slept in two or three bursts, rather than one. With Garmin you’re penalised for poor sleep. With Coros sleep is not fitness, so you might not “sleep” well, but recovery is still recovery.
### Less Demanding
One of the nice things about Coros is that it is less demanding, and less distracting. It presents you with run or ride data, current fatigue and other info, without encouraging you to check the app all the time. It’s designed for you to do the workout, look at the data, and move on with your day. It is also far more forgiving of you not wearing the watch all day, every day, for years. You could wear it for sleep for HRV status, and workouts, and forget about it for the rest of the time.
Summary
Whilst Garmin is meant to be more advanced, and provide far more data, by being too detail oriented about what it wants almost always gives negative feedback about sleep, HRV, and more. In the end it becomes too negative to be usable. In contrast, Coros tracks an activity, gives some info, and then leaves you alone.
In the age of never-ending feedback it is nice to be left alone to enjoy running, cycling and more. The only niggle I noticed is that the heart rate, recently was 20bpm higher on Coros than on Garmin. In theory an HR band, or strap, solves this issue.

Habe es erst mal auf meine animalischen #Instinkte geschoben. 😉
Bin trotzdem kurz an den #Strassenrand um den Puls manuell zu checken Denn normal waren die #Pulswerte nicht. Nix Auffälliges. Nach Neustart der Uhr und putzen des Sensors war alles wieder ok. 🤔
zu Hause am Kompi schlau gemacht: #CadenceLock! 🎉 - etwas Neues gelernt.
