Great HR for the long run. I've never taken my HR monitor on a long run, recommend it? What should I look for with it?

I use HR for all my runs. You first need to know your resting HR which you do as soon as you open your eyes in the morning. I will keep my Garmin and HR strap by the bed so I can do it without getting up. I use lowest steady HR over a couple minutes. Then you need to know your max HR. This one is tricky. Go here to get a ball park figure. I use the 205-Age/2 (Fit) calculation. http://www.stevenscreek.com/goodies/hr.shtml

You want all of your long runs to be no more than 70% of your heart rate reserve. If your run is more intense, you get anearobic and defeat the purpose of the long run.
The best thing about tracking HR is that you can see that you are getting in better shape.
The non-scientific way to know you are running aerobically is you should feel that you can easily carry on a conversation with someone. No huffing & puffing, even up hills!
