Hi all
I have loved running for years, I run twice a week, 4k and 8k, not particularly fast, but I do it because I love the peace & quiet, the scenery, and I like to feel fit from it.
Which is why I was very confused when my husband gave me a polar heart rate monitor. He thought it would be great for me because I love running! I get how it works (kind of), but for me I just don't see the point.... yes I could lose a tiny bit more weight, and yes I could be a little bit more fit, but I'm totally uncompetitive, so not worried about increasing speed for races, and I really enjoy running the way I always have done.
I'm very tempted to get him to sell it on (but worry he'd be upset), I don't want to leave it in a drawer.... can anyone help me to see the point of it for my kind of running?!! I really would love to fall in love with it!
Thanks so much!
