Re: NANCY From JEN Re: Need help with measuring progress for 2008 goal

Hi Jen, I do things like that already, and they help, but it is easier for me to do them outside (no treadmill here) and it is too cold outside for me to do that. :-) I am (was) also looking for a more "scientific" measurement, I knew there was some kind of test involving pulse rate or resting heart rate but wasn't sure how it was done. Yours is another very interesting way to see progress though, thanks for sharing it with me

Re: Need help with measuring progress for 2008 goal

GREAT question, ! I'll be interested in hearing what you/we find out!

I personally don't know how to objectively measure cardiovascular progress. I only know that when I can run a mile without stopping when before I could only run three quarters of a mile that I have progressed.

I bet Tonya will be able to answer this for us! Great goal!!
