It was a red letter day Friday because Polar delivered their new RS800sd Heart Rate Monitor to test and review. It is a fabulous-looking device and with accompanying foot pod a whole lot lighter than my “old” S625x. I’m not big on gadgets and new toys, but the inner male is coming out in me on this one. Today it had its first outing. I will still need to calibrate the cadence pod, which measures and can evaluate the quality of my running stride. That should help with efficiency, as Polar indicate even someone as fit as Lance Armstrong appeared to have been overstriding during his New York Marathon attempt last November.

Today was a shortish steady run.

Resting Heart Rate 48
