Fucking windy and foggy. Not too foggy where you can't see what's in front of you. I really wanted a nice sunrise and clear blue sky. Am I on crack or what? Bad assed headwind as I was heading out to Fort Point. As I was running through Chrissy Field (both towards Fort Point and back), my heart rate monitor just didn't transmit. It just beeped annoyingly for a good while like it does when it is out of range. I swear I was ready to toss this thing into the water.

I'm wondering if I really am setting my zones too high. Am I getting too fat? I don't think so because I've been fitting fine in my pants. This is my first week using these new zones. Funny thing is that if I were to use the zones set up by the old formula, I would be out of range.

Then again, I think I know what I did wrong. I set it up for a tempo run. Silly me.
