No, JRMichler, I definitely give 110%, and the majority of drivers drive better than average.

So, train a longer distance at a slower speed? How does that help?

The reason that I bought a heart rate monitor is because I have been struggling with running since I came home from Active Duty and I have been trying to figure out why. Even when I run a few times a week for a couple of months, I do not see improvement. We always talk about instrumentation with fuel economy, I wanted to see what is going on.

I often feel like I have difficulty maintaining energy levels and maybe I do, but it seems like I am working my heart as hard as I can, and perhaps it is my limiting factor.
